I'm convinced. Let's break our fixterms encodings by default on macOS for the keybinds below. This is a very common question by macOS users. If macOS users want to get fixterms encodings back for this, they can replace the below with unbind.

The discussion has more background on why this is the way it is.

keybind = cmd+right=text:\x05
keybind = cmd+left=text:\x01
keybind = alt+left=esc:b
keybind = alt+right=esc:f

This breaks fixterms encodings for these specific keys so that shells
and other programs that rely on the legacy encoding for these keys will
work by default.

This only does this for macOS because for whatever reason during the
large beta period, only macOS users found this as lacking.

If users want to restore fixterms behaviors, they can rebind these keys
as `unbind`.
