These keys were functioning ages before the bind.

Yes, to be changed via 'bind'.
And there could be
	term->set_interactive('hotkey', 'q', 'disable')
	term->set_interactive('hotkey', 'q', 'enable')

Well -- is there any possibility to get back the built-in command?
E.g.
	bind a 'plot x'
	bind a  builtin-autoscale
does not work.
