Modern KeyBinding
The mod ported the newer version's KeyModifier && KeyConflictContext back to Fabric & Early Forge.
Features
You can now define a keybinding's activation key with key modifiers. Like "Ctrl + G" or "Alt + S";
The keybindings with the same activation key but different key conflict contexts no longer conflict.
"Non-conflict keys" (disabled by default): The keybindings with the same key will all be activated if the key is pressed.
Attention:
The mod will crash with NEI. Use NEI Unofficial(Dependencies: CodeChickenCore | CodeChickenLib) by GTNH instead.

Register a keybinding
Register a keybinding that:
Activates when Alt and C are pressed;
Only available in GUI.

public class ClientProxy {
public void init(final FMLInitializationEvent event) {

yourKeyBinding = KeyBindingRegistry.INSTANCE.registerKeyBinding("key.exampleKey", KeyConflictContext.GUI, KeyModifier.ALT, Keyboard.KEY_C, "key.categories.example");
}
}
Change the properties of an existing keybinding
ClientProxy.java
public class ClientProxy {
//...
public void postInit(final FMLPostInitializationEvent event) {
final IKeyBinding extended = (IKeyBinding) yourKeyBinding;
// Change the key's keyCode and modifier, as their default values.
extended.setInitialKeyModifierAndCode(KeyModifier.ALT, Keyboard.KEY_E);
// Change the key's keyCode and modifier.
extended.setKeyModifierAndCode(KeyModifier.ALT, Keyboard.KEY_E);
// Change the key's conflict context.
extended.setKeyConflictContext(KeyConflictContext.IN_GAME);
