Confirmed.

Ok, I'm only interested in the laptop key table and for this, ShiftLeft suits 
me perfectly fine. But if you want to define
some key, which also works for the keypad... don't know.

Problem with 7, 8 and 9 is, that they are so far away from j, k and l although 
the functions are strongly related.

- full words
- lines
- partial words
- chars

If you want to keep the key binding logic, you would have to assign full words 
to u, i and o and put lines on 7-9. But
lines are important too: I use the shortcut a lot and don't want to move my 
fingers that far. In fact I use the line
bindings much more often than the char bindings.

But we don't want to introduce such massive changes (usability!). Therefore 
your 7-9 solution seems to be a good
compromise. I don't mind these bindings (never used them before -> no collision 
here). I just add my 4 ShiftLeft
bindings in my personal key table and everyone is happy :-).

Yes, I think, that should be the default. Thanks.

Regarding your other question about a config param to switch full/part word 
definition: I don't think this is necessary (just adds complexity).

Cheers
