Improve cli hotkeys to support OSX better

we're using alt as a modifier, and it's not behaving as intended on OSX

Tasks

experiment on OSX and pinpoint what's weird
look into how keypress works
look into patching functionality upstream in either neat-input or keypress
use a new modifier if all else fails
rethink hotkey usage

It could be a configuration issue. As I remember, the default Terminal.app needs a config bit flipped to allow the Alt key to be accepted.
