should empty keybindings be allowed in scim? (was: [m17n] scim/skim question)

For the trigger hotkey, maybe.

But I think it might be useful if empty values for all configurable
keybindings were allowed. Maybe one does not need a certain function
at all and doesn't want to have it on any key in order not to hit it
accidentally. Then it might be nice to make the key binding empty in
the scim configuration dialog.

Currently it is not possible to make such key bindings empty, if
nothing is found in the configuration files, fallback key bindings
which are hard coded in the source code are used.

I think this would be easy to change to accept empty values to be able
to disable certain key bindings, but would that make sense?

Zhe, what do you think?
