Numbers act as cursors
Option to remove "cursor" functionality from number keys

All number keys on the keyboard seem to have double functionality... they act as both numbers and cursors.
For example, you can move with regular number keys (horizontal row above letters) just as well as with keypad keys (on the right side of the keyboard).

This can sometimes be a problem when using spell shortcuts, like the one which just happened to me:
I had a lightning bolt which I have put on a shortcut number 1.
I was standing in a east-west tunnel,wanted to cast a spell towards right, but when selecting the spell from the list, I pressed 1 and then 2 accidentally.
My character died because the lightning bolt was cast downwards, bouncing 8 times and killing me.

My suggestion is to add option which removes 'direction' functionality from number keys, and 'number' functionality from cursor keys.
I'm currently playing Linux version, but If I remember correctly it was the same on Windows.
