Sat 07 Jul 2018 05:45:18 PM UTC, comment #3: 1) Yes, Del and Ins can be rebound. When the rebinding code was improved (a long time ago, in the 2.3 series), the ability to rebind the cursor-movement keys was dropped, but the ability to rebind "Ins" and "Del" was left intact, as an exception, because I could imagine that someone would want "Ins" to do something else than the same thing as ^R (and "Del" just for symmetry).

Sat 09 Jun 2018 05:06:24 PM UTC, comment #2: It may be difficult or impossible to enable all the hotkeys you mention, since nano is a console program, and can't detect all those keys the same way an X11 program can. (For example, in the console, Ctrl-Shift-Z generates the same value as Ctrl-Z, and a significant number of Alt-<key> combinations either generate <key> alone or nothing at all.) Enabling some Alt hotkeys might be an option if those keys generate something, but it would depend on which keys in particular you're trying to rebind.
