This is some good research, I hope you don't mind if I CC: the devel
mailing list, and the UX advise list too? :-)
Really appreciate work on this subject!
I think this is actually a good question for the UX advise list :-) My
proposal would be to get rid of the RepeatSearch functionality (and
I for one do use that quite often. And would be surprised if not more
people do.
Change to another short-cut is OK for me. And I guess people using it
have little problem in remembering shot cuts, so if a change if needed
for better consistency, another short cut for repeat would be more
appreciated then removing it completely.
As for the accelerators not working when a text area in a menu bar is
selected, I think that might be a bigger problem. For example, this
also prevents things like ctrl-s saving a document, which could
potentially lead to data loss if someone doesn't know their work is
not being saved. I don't know what changing that would actually
involve, but I would be happy to work on it if people want that
modification.
Good point! I have just checked, and it is a more general problem -
when you try that in eg. the 'Font size' combobox, you cannot do Ctrl-s
either. Should I file an easy hack for that, or will you try to
investigate this one too? :-)
Maybe related: fdo#43822 ?
