I would warn against using Shift + (Left|Right) as an alternate shortcut: I =

assume Konsole does this because it has special handling of Tab, but Shift =
+ =

Left|Right is most likely already used for other purposes in several =

applications, for example moving from word to word in an editor.

I personally prefer ctrl + page up|down as I find them more symetrict and =

intuitive, but I may be the minority here.
