Comment (by bipolar):

Replying to [comment:2 pulkomandy]:

Ctrl+I emits a TAB character. It is used in vim to... insert a TAB

character.

[...]
So in the same way, control+H is backspace, control+J is a newline, etc.

If you dislike these, you can remove them from your keymap.

Jeez, this one was driving me nuts. I would have never have expected to
have to modify the keymap to avoid this weird/unexpected behaviour (I
haven't encountered it even on Linux).

Specially confusing because I use "Windows/Linux" shortcuts mode, so ALT+I
(what I see on the physical keyboard) was really making
no sense at all.

Good thing that it can be modified from the Keymap preflet.

I still think these are bad defaults, but oh well... at least I can stop
grepping the source code trying to find where CTRL+I was invoking the
Twitcher :-D

One day will have a system wide KeyBindings preflet, and a working AltGr
key... one can dream :-P
