Magit is perhaps overly insistent about some keybindings

[dabrahams]

I'm using the technique shown here to globally bind C-return to other-window. It uses emulation-mode-map-alists to get the absolute highest precedence for the keybinding. As far as I can tell that should work, but if I put the cursor on a diff hunk in the magit status buffer and hit C-return, I get magit-diff-visit-worktree-file (found in magit-hunk-section-map). I don't see any guidance about how to change that in the manual. Is there a way?

If you want that, you have to use overriding-terminal-local-map instead, as shown here: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Searching-Keymaps.html.

Thanks for the hint!

For the record, setting bindings in overriding-terminal-local-map works for a while, but then something (I'm not sure what) mysteriously sets it to nil.
