The two should ship with the same mouse and key movement system.  There's
no reason to have them work differently by default, and it takes a long
time to get used to switching between them.  The existing behavior must
still be available as an option of course.

I also think pcb system is a bit better than gschem, but there's also the
question of which is more typical of other similar interfaces.  I don't
know what the default behavior should be exactly, but it should be
consistent.
