I don't think we need to revive ^L once it is removed. The steering council decided there is no real "code owner". Codes are owned by everyone.
On the other hand, ^L is very minor control character nowadays. Many new people use many new editors. I don't believe every common editors support ^L well. And even though editor supports it, people may be confused by it. If only few core developer likes ^L, why we need to add it even though it is removed by accident? What makes ^L more important than TAB? Regards, On Tue, Nov 19, 2019 at 3:52 AM Tal Einat <talei...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Mon, Nov 18, 2019 at 8:50 PM Eric V.
