Description Evan Hughes CLA 2013-08-20 10:53:45 EDT
Using the key binding preference page (Preferences > General > Keys) I was trying to unbind an uncategorized binding. It was hidden due to filters. I didn't realize there were any filters being applied. 

It would improve usability if it was easier for users to discover that filters were applied. 

Moving the "Filter..." button closer to the binding list (and away from export/apply/cancel) would help. So would adding a status message somewhere (e.g. "15 keybindings hidden due to <u>filters</u>").

The position of "Filter..." button is already changed in Luna. Now it is directly under the binding list.
