We really need a 'train heating' switch keybind, plus suggestion for on and off binds for all switches etc

Loving that we get more keybinds now, 
but one is missing that some of us use a lot... the train heating switch in the EU07 / EP08 etc... 
This is the switch you need to turn off when the wires are icy and the OLE voltage is fluctuating... turn the train heating off in time and it will not trip the power out.... 
And if you do trip the undervoltage relay, you need to turn the train heating off to re-start the converter... so this is one keybind i really was expecting to see. 

I also note that some toggle switches can have 2 keybinds assigned to them... one for on and one for off,  i.e. the pantograph switches where you have a dedicated up and down keybind. 
But for the 'new' compressor and converter switches keybinds (plus the high current switch)  we only get a single keybind for on and off...
is it possible to change it so that all controls that are on a toggle or rotary switch get a seperate on and off keybind?
(maybe an option that if we assign the same keybind for on and off, it will then switch between the toggle position each time a single keybind is pressed)

Not sure if others get this, but i can't seem to get the 'anti slip' button keybind to work in the EU07 / EP08's (it works in the ET22.. made a bug report about this)

And another 'missing' keybind, the 'Open Line Contactors' button... i use this when i have missed a neutral section sign and need to turn power off rapidly,  so a keybind for this would almost complete all the things we operate when driving and don't want to mess about using the mouse to operate.

change title to show train heating keybind is the main thing
