When changing the keys for `key_open` and `key_back` to `KEY_RIGHT` and `KEY_LEFT`, the bottom help bar shows `^E` and `^D` respectively instead of the actual new keybindings.
Wrong keybinding label in the help bar for KEY_LEFT and KEY_RIGHT

Yes, nmail is currently missing mapping of some non-printable keyboard shortcuts to proper names.

For keypad arrows we can perhaps use:  ← → ↑ ↓ 

Function keys can be: F1-F9 (+ 10-19?)

Need to think about suitable names / symbols for others, like:
tab, space, enter, delete, home, end, page up/down, clear, escape.

How many characters would you allow in keybinding labels at maximum?

I think the following names/abbreviations are standard, or at least straightforward enough to be understood, but some may be a tad long for a help bar: `Tab`, `Space`, `Enter`, `Del`, `Home`, `End`, `PgUp`, `PgDn`, `Esc`

Thanks for the suggestions, they look pretty good to me! 

One thing to note though - for several of these keys, they are already assigned an implicit non-configurable function (at this point... after #9 this will probably change), like `Space`, `Enter`, `Del`, `Home`, `End`, `PgUp`, `PgDn`. And these keys are not shown in the helpbar (as they follow fairly common UI behavior).
