Revert F3 + F4 changes.

Minecraft 26.2 Pre-Release 5 :

As the host of a world, changing the game mode with F3 + F4 or with commands now changes the default game mode of the world.

No we don't need that change thank you.

Why would one need a quick shortcut to change the world's gamemode?
Quick shortcuts are meant for things you do frequently.

Also dont touch F3+N plz.

    As a Moderator for a youtubers Patreon server, I echo this. The F3+F4 is a command the entire team uses on a daily basis as we fulfill our duties as staff. If it changes the server's gamemode as shown in pre release 5, it is going to cause chaos and a lot of extra work for the admins of the server.

    This change can do enormous amounts of harm to communities when many of us ops (mode and server admins) have used these and have since what feels like the dawn of time. It would cause great harm to the integrity of community game play for 1000's of players in many communities. One little slip or oops would do so much damage especially if it wasn't immediately corrected. Players would be able to cheat items in or would end up suffocating in walls when removed from spectator.

    Please... for the love of mods and admins everywhere... revert this change...

    This is going to cause alot more harm than help for those that run servers. I dont run one myself but as an op'd mod on one and used to be staff on another, this would cause havoc. Its going to be alot more work for admins and is an unnecessary change.

    This is going to be a really bad idea for multi player servers.

    This is almost the dumbest idea I've heard and that's saying a lot. Please undo this, there is no need for this shortcut, it will only wreak havoc on servers.

    F3+F4 is a long used tool for OP players especially in multiplayer servers. This change is unnecessary and will cause a lot of issues for those of us who develop and run servers. Please revert it.

    This seems like a massive issue for server hosts/admins, especially of large servers. I can forsee an accidental button press (especially as they are next to each other) from a server admin on a large server, and all the users having their game mode changed in an instant. This could do massive damage.

    Please don't make the admins/mods lives harder, this change will mess mith almost everyone who plays on a multiplayer server (which thanks to how great minecraft is, is a lot)!

    What needs to be made clear is this game isn't mainly used by technical players who know the ins and outs about things. Players will use the F3 + F4 keybind to change their own gamemode as this conveniences them, without ever realizing that under the hood the server gamemode is being changed as well. This is poor game design and bad from any perspective you look at it. Let's imagine this change is made for convenience sake. Someone down the line when this change gets burried in the changelog will switch their gamemode in this way and log off their server or realm only to find that the next person to login automatically got creative mode and started giving themselves diamonds. Uh oh, now it's the owner's fault for going into creative on their survival server. Even if 100% of server architectures implement a fix for this change reverting its functionality entirely, this is not a welcome change to the most casual players, and is only an accident waiting to happen.

    Running my own small personal server for friends, this is a major issue as a a player and admin, needing to switch between modes is needed but should not impact across the whole users for me to fix something or do something
