Missing keybind for 'Train Heating' switch

[Gazz292]

We have most of the keybinds that are used when driving the trains now, but one that is still missing is the 'Train Heating' switch in the EU07, EP08 type loco's. 

This one is important to have as if you trip certan safety relays it shuts off the converter (iced up overhead lines being the most common one to happen many times during a run, but sometimes overcurrent trips do more more than trip just the motor relay, and i've had all relays tripping when moving the power wheel down too fast at times)

The converter can not start up under load. 

So after an undervoltage trip happens due to iced up wires, you can reset the relays using keybinds, you can hold in the main switch with a keybind... but to get the converter to start up you need to use the mouse to drag the Train Heating switch off... restart the converter with the keybind, and then mouse the Train Heating switch back on.

Just a side note. Train heating just enables 3kV for the wagons. So it's not load for the converter

[Gazz292]

Doh!... of course... the converter takes 3kV and turns it into 110v for the control circuits and lights,  

is the converter not restarting with the train heating switched on due to another thing then? 
it's when you press the main switch button to re-power things after tripping out due to iced up wires, it won't latch on until you turn the train heating off,
is that a safety relay or something doing that, perhaps to ensure you deliberately turn the train heating power off each time you start the loco up.
