Well, unmodified arrows are not really a good idea right now since
they are needed for navigation and edition of the slides ("switch"
macros that is).

Maybe it would be meaningful to have this behaviour only when
presentation mode is enabled, though... But that should come also with
a feature to prevent editing. Otherwise we risk additional user
frustration.

Also, it seems that way to define new keyboard shortcuts have changed
a bit during the scheme reorganization. I cannot tell more, since I
have not yet taken the time to update my customizations.
