Steps to reproduce:

1. Set gtk-key-theme=Emacs
    $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-key-theme 'Emacs'
2. In composing area of new mail, pressed C-f (Control+F), C-n, C-p or C-w.


Actual results:

gtk-key-theme=Emacs is ignored:

  C-f: search dialogue is opened

  C-n: an another composing window is opened

  C-p: print dialogue is opended

  C-w: the window is closed


Expected results:

gtk-key-theme=Emacs is honored:

  C-f: <right> Move forward one character (forward-char).

  C-n: <down> Move down one screen line (next-line).

  C-p: <up> Move up one screen line (previous-line).

  C-w: <Ctrl>+<Delete> Kill region (backward-word).


NOTE:
  C-a: <Home>, C-e: <End>, C-b: <left> are already supported.
