While I appreciate the source of this change (I've almost never hit F1 intending to open the doucmentation myself), I don't think a RR is the right place to discuss changes to our default shortcuts.  This takes a small survey of a small section of our community.  I think the VDG would probably be the best place to have a discussion about what help, if any, is triggered and on what shortcut (though if there is a better source I'm happy to take their input instead).  Once there is a consensus, then I'm happy to have those changes implemented.

Since there is a global way to disable F1 for people who find this annoying now, this is a -2 from me.  People annoyed at F1 can fix their issue now without code changes while we figure out the best plan forward.
