Arthur Borsboom proposed the following answer:
Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for your feedback; it is appreciated.

You are the first person requesting reconfigurable shortcuts. Besides that,
it is too much work *to me* (I don't feel like doing it), knowing that I
see little benefit to myself and others.

However, in your wordings it seems that *to you* it is not much work to
develop. That is good to know. :)
If it is that little work, I welcome you to develop the code and submit the
patches. I will review them and perform some additional basic testing. From
time to time, people participate this way, to get their wanted features in
Xpad.

For the [Shift + End + Delete] being interpreted as [Shift + Delete] I will
look into this another time.
That is awkward.

Best regards,
