I haven't; but I use only Fnn keys (or shift-Fnn keys), and, in Normal
mode only, non-ASCII keys (my Belgian keyboard has a number of these: ²
³ é § è ç à ° µ £ ù -- not counting the characters obtained with AltGr
or with dead-circumflex and dead-diaeresis) as the {lhs} of my mappings,
unless I explicitly want to override a preexisting key binding. Also, my
mapping for <F1> intentionally overrides the default functionality
(which is "help" as in many programs), as I have: ":map <F1> :bot
help<CR>" to have it open the help window (if not already open) at the
very bottom rather than next to the current window.
Best regards,
Tony.
