  * Two modes, and the second is the good one:

- *   ctrl+shift+l  / ctrl+shift+→      next theme, from anywhere, no UI
- *   ctrl+shift+h  / ctrl+shift+←      previous theme

+ *   ctrl+shift+space    open the list, then browse it

  * One modifier for all three, which took some choosing. `ctrl+alt+arrows` switches WORKSPACE on GNOME and
  * `ctrl+alt+l` locks the screen, so ctrl+alt is unusable for this. `shift+alt` is free on Linux but is the
  * keyboard-layout switcher on Windows. `ctrl+shift` has no OS binding at all; its only collision is
  * word-selection inside a text field, which the guard below already prevents.
  *
- * Vim keys and arrows are interchangeable everywhere: `h`/`←`, `l`/`→`, `j`/`↓`, `k`/`↑`.
+ * The GLOBAL bindings are arrows only. `ctrl+shift+h`/`l` used to work too, and two spellings for one
+ * action invited the guess that `ctrl+shift+j` moved down — which opens the browser console instead. One
+ * spelling, no guessing.
+ *
+ * Inside the list the vim keys stay, UNMODIFIED — `j`/`k`/`l`/`h` alongside the arrows. No modifier means
+ * no collision with anything the browser owns, and this is a vim person's application.
