@minrk Care to review? This reverts some of #963 which caused conflicts on non-English keyboards.

Is it just the ctrl-alt shortcuts or also the cmd-alt shortcuts that cause this problem? I would certainly be sad to lose those.

@minrk This is only removing the Cmd-Alt-[ shortcut, not all Cmd-Alt-*

Sorry. My question was whether it was ctrl-alt-[ or cmd-alt-[ or both that cause the issue.

I inquired about that in the issue. Let's see what people say 👍 I think we just need to avoid using shortcuts that involve [ and ], but I saw a one comment about \ and @Carreau suggested that we also disable ones involving /.

I believe that's anything that touch [,], and alt. Alt is heavily use on french keyboard to type punctuation. You just can't bind by default to anything that uses alt.
That one of the main reason why I'm not an emacs user as most alt-based shortcut were conflicting with typing.

The MacOS keyboard is slightly different, but same battle. Alt is a critical key.

Ok, so this PR just comments out the 2 commands that involve alt so I think we can merge this and iterate if necessary.
