On the other hand, you would use it and you care.

To help allay Kovid's concerns: How about an additional setting in Look & Feel->Enable tag browser keyboard interaction which defaults to unchecked, and/or only enable keyboard interaction if the new Focus the tag browser shortcut is used.

I haven't found a way to enable/disable keyboard interaction on the fly reliably.
As for the setting: yes, one is necessary. I had been leaning toward a tweak because it is certainly set-and-forget, but am coming around to an option for discoverability.

"The space key would open the context menu…" - I would much prefer to use the 'normal' context menu keys, i.e. the one that's normally next to the right Ctrl key, or Shift+F10. Also in other trees the space bar does nothing or does what a left mouse button click does - e.g. file managers show folder contents in main panel.
|
This is exactly why I need someone who cares. I don't think I have ever pushed that "Menu" key in my life, and I didn't know about Shift+F10. Fortunately, Qt knows and they already work. I will take out the repurposing of the space key.

Aside: something I noticed a long time ago - Ctrl+Esc and Alt+Esc are the default shortcuts for Clear the virtual library and Clear the additional restriction, but Windows uses them to pop the Start Menu and switch between active tasks, and they takes precedence. There maybe other clashes I've not noticed.

This kind of thing happens all the time with other characters. Some programs, for example the Intel Graphics Manager, allow hijacking keys. I don't think it is possible to make default assignments that won't conflict somewhere.
I don't intend to provide a default binding for "Give TB the focus". I am using ALT-B for testing.
