I "select" one net, then "find" the other net.  The select code uses
the find flag internally so order matters.

All key bindings are caused by menu entries, so all key bindings have
to be in there somewhere.  Any key binding that doesn't have a "home"
elsewhere in the menu gets put in the key bindings list.

The menu system isn't designed for conflicting hotkeys.  I don't know
