[Rwp] [RWP] OSARA, an open-source ReaAccess replacement in development

[Scott Chesworth]

Fair point. I wouldn't go so far as to say that the whole key map was
well thought out, actually it's a bit of a mess in places. Think
what's occurring here in part is a case of old dogs and new tricks.
Myself included.

My point is that if even I (as the primary author) am using something different to the ReaAccess key map, I'd be very reluctant to include a ReaAccess based key map as the default. At the very least, that key map is harder to learn initially. This is why I haven't included a key map at all at this point. Perhaps we could include a ReaAccess key map as an option, but I'm reluctant to make it a "default".
