Date: Mon, 2 May 2016 10:52:48 -0700 (PDT)

Why was key `A' bound to a different command, with different behavior?
Why not just add the new command, with no key binding?  If people want
to bind it to a key, you will find that out soon enough.  And if they
want to replace the `A' binding you will find that out also.
