Interface OverwriteMergeable

public interface OverwriteMergeable
Implemented by config values that need to preserve transient (non-serialized) state when a loaded value overwrites them.

See OneConfigKeybind: its key action is transient and therefore lost on deserialization, but the keys/modifiers are restored from disk. Merging the loaded keys into the existing keybind keeps the action intact.
