I don't know what the purpose of the second listview is.
Wouldn't it
be much better to have a single list view that also lists user
saved
custom keymaps at the end of the list, behind a separator line
perhaps? Then the list view would be more than twice the height.
Someone coming from a Windows/etc. background might misinterpret
the
distinction between System and User as referring to a multi-user
context, where System determines the keyboard layout for the login
screen etc. and User the one used for the current user after login.
So it might make sense to keep two lists in some form, but for the
current use of only having "(Current)" and user-saved maps under
User
I agree that we could merge them into the User list.
I didn't mean to put the words "System" and "User" in there
somewhere. I just wanted one list with the names of the system
provided keymaps. There is no item "Current" or "User", but one of
the keymaps is simply highlighted. If the user saved a custom
keymap, then there would be a separator line at the bottom of the
list and his personal keymap there with name that he gave to it. It
probably has a default name of "Custom" or even "User" perhaps when
the user is asked to save it or it is saved automatically when he
changes the current keymap. Best would be if it would be "German -
Modified" by default for example if the user first selected German
and then changed some keys. Best not to even ask to save it but just
do it.
But currently we do have them. :)
Even though you might have not meant it, I am still raising the issue
that we will have to deal with a multi-user scenario at some point.
We
will then either need two lists again, or one list and a dropdown
list, or one list and a button or menu item.
