As it happens I have my “view scentmap” bound to ` and it works fine on my dev build (as of yesterday–I’m in a working branch ATM), so this is definitely not something that should be happening. What OS are you running?

OK. I’ve just rebound commands using some other key to `, bound ` to commands that already had bindings (with and without `already being bound) and answered N to rebinding`. Just pushed ` a few times, and it refreshed the window but otherwise did nothing.

None of those caused problems within the keybinding window. Whatever’s wrong on your end, I can’t reproduce it with the information provided. My apologies.
