Description

It seems that assigning a CTRL+Q shortcut to "exit" resulted collision with "search symbol". Personally, I think we should replace "search symbol" shortcut key with CTRL+W. It is nice combination, because it is free, fast and similar to previous one.

P.S.
Moreover I enclose small cosmetic "navigator" fix.

I agree with Ctrl+Q for exit, but Ctrl+W is most commonly used for closing tab/file (currently Ctrl+U in TheIDE). If we correct both the closing shortcuts, it would leave the Ctrl+U free so it could be used for search symbol (unless there is some better option). What do you think?

Jan, I fully support your position, but there is one big problem with current upp version. Now we have collision with CTRL+U. We need to modify following lines as well (ide.key):
KEY
KEY

Insted of:

KEY
KEY

This solution should break collision chain.
