Description (last modified by )
Meta-ticket following r24215.
There are a number of improvements to the hotkeys still possible. i'm milestoning this for A24 but it's a likely pushback.
Feature list (from the top of my head):
- More platform support (e.g. Delete on mac should translate to Backspace, really).
- Give hotkeys a better name and a description so that players aren't confused (cf in-game Manual).
- Better way to categorise hotkeys (right now, it's the name prefix which is not ideal).
- ...?
Bug list:
- The 'no confirm' hotkey doesn't properly work with all combinations, only the first, which means on mac that to kill without confirm one needs to use 'Fn', which isn't needed otherwise.

Of course it's good that one can configure hotkeys now, but this will look very confusing and hard to understand to newbies. In A23 we had descriptions for all the hotkeys, that has gone. Plus, the new surface is not translated.
My suggestion: Bring the description back and implement the autociv-mod, which delivers one additional surface for changing hotkeys.
That the mods autociv and fgod don't work anymore is an unpleasant regression. All mods which are feature mods without changing the game too much could be implemented.
