That is an excellent idea, and gives users plenty of choice.
However, I expect that a lot of people won't have the skills required to
include such Nasal code themselves. Would it be possible to integrate the
function more thoroughly into the codebase, so that it is "Just There" for
new users and they can simply add new key bindings to keyboard.xml?
One or two aircraft also currently use Tab (including the Vulcan) for
other purposes, but I'm more than happy to swap the Vulcan to use another
key (though it would be nice to define the reserved aircraft keys first ;)
).
