Comment:
Ctrl+A is default for home under certain environments. But it works as
select all if you use the kde-gui plugin and have set KDE behaviour to be
Windows-like. Qt acts in a UNIX/Emacs compatible mode by default I think.
So I don't think we should make Ctrl+A select all by default, since many
people on UNIX are used to have Ctrl+A act like Home under Windows. With
KDE you can configure this behavior for all applications in the same way,
using the control center. There you can select your interface policy to be
UNIX, Windows or something custom. Forcing it to be only one way would be
inconsistent.
