When working in a terminal, the f-keys don't work, because they are reserved for (rather useless) Unity shortcuts. htop, midnight commander and other programs use the f-keys for important program features. Some of the Unity shortcuts (F1, F10) can be disabled, but it doesn't work reliably on every system. Please, let the terminal programs make use of all the f-keys.
Note that this is not a feature request, but a bug report, because the programs in question don't work properly without reconfiguration. Some of these are very basic tools for system administration, so they should work properly out of the box.
