[Sugar-devel] [PATCH sugar] Fix shortcut for view source

Excerpts from Simon Schampijer's message of 2012-04-16 10:42:39 +0200:

Is "Keyboard light on/off" really a key that we want to trigger View
Source? Maybe it's what current OLPC images call the key, but that's
fixable.

If upstream (Linux) really is averse to adding a new definition for the
"gear" key, the following existing one [1] sounds like a better fit:

KEY_PROPS ("Display the properties of the current document" [2])


That key would be better mapped to opening the Journal details view (for
the current activity session), but if there's really push-back from the
input subsystem maintainers, it would be a reasonable compromise.
