    It’s innocent enough but this headline somehow just reads like it’s from the onion.

        Not the glorious return of the Hyper key I expected, but I’ll take it.

          I know right. I love me some more shortcut modifiers.

          In theory it is possible to map rctrl to another key either way, but the different glyph on it is nice to differentiate it from an actual control key.
