    @brief
        Handles the KeyBinders and supplies them throughout the game.

        This interface merely serves to provide a static "keybind" command that always
        maps to the currently active KeyBinder. You can set that with setCurrent().
        There is also a default one, retrieved with getDefault(). The idea is that
        mostly the default KeyBinder is active except for special situtations (mini-game for inst).
    @remarks
        You are not forced to use the KeyBinder imposed by getCurrent(). But be aware that "keybind"
        will not work as expected!
