Well, to start with, you don't need to import all of those
modules. Aside from that, you bring up a good point: key
bindings are interpolated from events.keydefs when they're
defined. You're changing them after that point. I'll see what I
can do before the next snapshot. It will be fixed before 3.9 is
released. For now, just copy wmiirc.py to ~/.wmii and edit that.
