My terminal emulator window is running an external shell process,
so I want control-p to mean "go to previous command", not bring
up the NetBeans print dialog.  On the other hand, most shell
commands do not use the f-keys, and this is where most of NetBeans
shortcuts are located, so I want F7 to step the debugger.

Therefore, I'm using Term's ability to define keystrokes that should
not be consumed.  This does however lead to a bit of redundancy.

Here's my e-mail to Ivan on the subject, and he asked me to file
an issue in issuezilla:
