Bug#309530: mozilla-firefox: emacs key shortcuts not recognized

[Andrew Pimlott]

Ok, I've figured out that killing gnome-settings-daemon restores my
settings in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.  All I can say is, holy crap is this bad
design!  My configuration varies depending on whether some daemon
happens to be running?!  The daemon asserts its defaults ahead of the
settings I've explicitly typed into my ~/.gtkrc-2.0?!

gnome-settings-daemon seems to have been started by some other program I
ran.  Is there some way of ensuring that it never gets started, or of
asking it to defer to my ~/.gtkrc-2.0?

BTW, README.Debian should be updated, because now even
gnome-keybinding-properties doesn't permit setting Emacs bindings.  Not
to mention that as soon as I run it, it undoes the key mappings I have
set with xmodmap.

Message to GNOME people:  Please give some consideration in your designs
to leaving things alone when you have not been asked to get involved.
