Hi Eli,
   Thanks for the changes. Everything work as expected for me now.

   However, the new keymap is only partially effective. I cannot
   use "i r" to rotate a sliced image now but it is possible to do it
   using "i + r" i.e. the mechanism that is used to allow performing
   repeated manipulations still uses a map which allows rotations.
