Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for users and not good for maintenance. Hence the conversion. - The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings for builtin features are now handled uniformly. Now, editing a binding in a keyset only affects its value in the keyset. All bindings are defined together in the system-specific default keysets in config-extensions.def. All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config-extension.cfg. All take effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok. - The affected events are '<<force-open-completions>>', '<<expand-word>>', '<<force-open-calltip>>', '<<flash-paren>>', '<<format-paragraph>>', '<<run-module>>', '<<check-module>>', and '<<zoom-height>>'.
