Would be great if vaxis could recognize keys like Ctrl+Left or Shift+Up.

This should be working already, I've tested both with and without kitty keyboard protocol and we can pick up these keys. Is it by chance in aerc you don't get them? I have a recent patch that enables this. https://lists.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc-devel/patches/49698

Hi! Thanks for your reply!

Indeed, my bad, in :term they work. Probably, as you say, because vaxis does support them, and in :term my .inputrc or .vimrc do map them to some actions, like this:

"\e[1;3C": forward-word

or this:

nnoremap <S-Right> :tabmove +1<CR>

Now, would it be possible to bring the readline-like mappings (or maybe user's .inputrc?) to aerc itself? Like, I personally only interested in one thing: moving by word in To: / Subject: fileds and in aerc's : command line. It so frustrating that you can do it everywhere but not in aerc... :)

Yeah, this should be possible. Can you make an issue on the aerc tracker?
