Nearly all of them - it is the default set by configure unless you use
an explicit --disable-dired-override (and I don't think many people use
that, especially given the confusing/misleading description "disable
private keymaps").
Whenever I see the "Do you really want to go to the Main screen?" prompt,
it's by mistake (I hit the wrong key)...
