Default Unbindable Chat Channels

Not sure if there's already another thread on this, but I couldn't find one with a quick search.

One thing that's always annoyed me throughout the game is the inability to unbind the chat channel hotkeys (!, @, #, $, etc.). My main problem with this is that it makes it incredibly frustrating when your holding down the shift key, for say, activating push-to-talk on Ventrillo, or to click on the screen without moving and then hit a number key to activate a skill and the chat window pops up, preventing you from doing anything until you manually close the window yourself.

This can cause incredible frustration, especially during a PvP match where the last thing you want is the trade channel opening up and all your key presses being typed onto the chat window instead of performing their usual function.

A simple fix to this would be to include the chat window hotkeys into the controls tab on the options menu, allowing users to switch or disable the hotkeys for these channels.

I bind my mouse wheel to PTT in Vent and TS.

What I'd like is a set of premade chat macros, so I can say "Back up" "Move up" and "Over here" without having to type in the middle of the fight.
