Also, I notice that the bindings for other letters have the same

with shift held and released).
I don't necessarily think that is a great idea. It is a pretty common
pattern to have, say Ctrl+a, do something, and Ctrl+Shift+a, do
something else. Just want to pick your brain on whether you think we
should do the same thing for both Ctrl+e and for Ctrl+E (aka
Ctrl+Shift+e), or just bind it to Ctrl+e, and leave Ctrl+E for something
else.
I just tested what happens when you press Ctrl+e while Caps Lock is
enabled; the Ctrl+e binding is not invoked. That's probably why other
key bindings have the same function bound for both lower- and
upper-case letters, to have the same behaviour with/without Caps Lock
enabled. With that in mind, we should probably bind Ctrl+E aswell.
Nice catch! Makes sense to have the same behaviour for both caps lock
enabled and disabled.
(I've been a git-gui user for many years...)
I disagree! Who expects anything to work properly when capslock is on?
M.
Should I create and send a new patch?
Yes, please do.
