What's wrong with command @ bottom? I suppose I'm not a highly
proficient typist; I like to have the command line and my fingertips
in my central vision simultaneously.
I sometimes find students who like command line at bottom:
they think of filling in the fields from top to bottom,
tabbing or new-lining down the screen, then the cursor
ends up in the command line to issue any command.
But most students prefer to set command line at top and
to turn off Jump to action bar; this way the Home key
acts in a familiar fashion.
What we do is simply show them how to set it and let each
person find the mix of settings that helps them work best.
But I wish that when I select command @ bottom in option 0 it
would apply uniformly to all panels.

Yes. But some developers insist on overriding the user-chosen
option, for whatever reason.
