Public bug reported:

In the emacs files installed by pylint (unfortunately it drove me crazy
so I uninstalled it and cannot list the exact files :-) there are three
key map assignments via (local-set-key ..) to [f1], [f2], and [f3].

Most emacs packages create key maps that are assigned to a distant key
(such as C-c, s or another longer combination of keys) or not assigned
at all, and allow the user to assign them to more major keys if its
desirable.

pylint just directly hijacks these major keys without asking the user,
and even makes it quite difficult to understand where they were hijacked
from (I noticed my [f2] was reassigned, but it was not reassigned to a
pylint function, but to prev-error).

I suggest re-assigning these mappings into a local pylint keymap, which
can be attached to a prefix key such as "C-c, l" or so.

Thanks.
