[Bf-funboard] Different Interaction Modes in different screen layouts

[Campbell Barton]

Hi, just a quick note that we'll most likely be looking into something
along these lines...

While in `Object Mode` you may

- animate
- use grease pencil
- edit object physics
- setup lighting

While in editmode you may

- retopo
- model
- edit UV's

----

Having all workflows share a keymap is limiting us and causes too many
conflicts,
No announcements right this moment, but I've discussed with Ton and
we'd like to investigate some ways to have different workflows better
supported (where Addons can define own workflows/keymaps/tools... etc
too.)

Also as pointed out, sharing the same draw-type between each *mode* is
a bit strange - especially for texture-paint/sculpt/editing.

Just replying to say the topic's on our radar & we'll most likely work
on it this year.
