   Home/End have been std. keys for decades to jump to start/end in input boxes.
   Please consider adding these as (additional) defaults. Windows/Linux users' typing muscles will benefit.

   The current C-a and C-e defaults are dual-key bindings that are harder to type and reach, also because left Ctrl requires pinky finger, which may often feels unnatural.

   I vote ➕ for this, since home/end text navigation is ubiquitous.

   I was experimenting with opencode for the first time and hit this too, I think they get clobbered by messages_first and messages_last.

   This seems to help in ~/.config/opencode/tui.json

   {
     "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/tui.json",
     "keybinds": {
       "messages_first": "none",
       "messages_last": "none"
     }
   }

    this really is a pain. jumping to the top of the conversation is not really a common thing to need, there's already a secondary obscure keybinding added for that for users who do want it, and home/end to jump around within text is standard muscle memory for programmers everywhere. it makes opencode feel like a very unserious product that isn't built by devs, for devs, to not respect that convention used literally everywhere inputs are used.
