Ah. I see it was just a planned enhancement that somehow got lost in the recesses of my brain. ;)

I wonder if, if accelerators were to become bound to the plugin in which they were added, if that would cause backward compatibility problems?

I can see how it would fix the problem in this particular thread.

It's possible, but I don't think it's likely. There's nothing desirable about executing plugin code within the world - especially dependent on user action - and it's also terribly confusing to see within the code.


If backwards compatibility is an issue - and it should be! - is there any chance we can start noting down these useful, desirable breaking changes, and start a new git branch for MUSHclient 5.0? After so many years of incremental, backwards-compatible development, I'm sure a lot of cruft builds up. I certainly wouldn't mind contributing.
