I think, placing a global switch like keymap.enable = "no" would resolve
this issue smoothly. The reason of putting key-bindings in the matplotlibrc
file is to give users more freedom to create their own keymappings. As it is
stated in that file, keybindings are easily nullified by assigning them to
null strings.
PS: Sorry, replying to all.
