ACK

Ah, on a closer look it seems both "Modify only current session" and "Retain
these settings for later sessions" behave the same in this respect:

Changing to emacs mode takes effect *after* the first keypress. (Only) the very
first keypress is not interpreted correctly. No restart required.

While testing I didn't consider this (sometimes testing "Ctrl+Y" and sometimes
"foo,Ctrl+Y"), and probably therefore came to a wrong conclusion.

I think in practice the behavior now is absolutely ok. Thanks again!

Debian stretch (testing) with locally built Wine Debian packages. Last time I
tested Wine 2.0-rc1 with your 2 related commits, and now 2.0-rc2.
