Think carefully before making a change like this. The reason user interface standards exist is to make sure that users can go from application to application and be productive, without having to relearn everything they know. I expect Ctrl-Home to go to top of document, and Ctrl-End to go to end of document, because that's the Windows standard. Unless you have a very good reason not to, your application should do the same.

Ok thanks, so it is not so trivial. I would like to use ctrl-page up in the stc to go
to the top of the document for example. It seems to me more logical, than the
ctrl-Pos1 or ctrl-home key.

It's also rational and follows the paper model. When reading a printed
document, PgUp goes back one page, not to the first page (unless you are on
page 2, of course).

   However, one could rationalize a change as following the Microsoft model;
they don't like anyone else's standards either.
