[racket] How to disable a couple of things in drracket

I think, that could get annoying if you want to inspect a larger number if  
definitions. You would have to press the key for quite a long time.

Another shortcut, that many IDEs offer is that you can jump to the place  
of definition of something via Ctrl+Left-Mouse. That would have a subset  
(the at least for me, most used one) of the arrow-functionality always  
available. Together with the option to enable/disable the arrows i would  
guess it fits most use cases.
