The ability to rebind break and place without effecting the user interface

It would be nice to have the ability to rebind the place and break mouse buttons without it also effecting left and right click in the user interface. Struggling to play this game after years of Minecraft muscle memory.

I used to have Q and E be my Break/Place buttons on a laptop, as there were no dedicated mouse buttons for those two. It made using the game on that laptop SO much easier.

That layout actually stills carry over for me today, as I still use I for inventory and Z for dropping items

I used to on a laptop do H to break and trackpad click to place, and because of that I now have the muscle memory of having my left and right mouse buttons swapped for breaking and placing lol.

I, too, would love this feature. I tried swapping the primary/secondary keys but the impact to UI was too extreme for it to be worthwhile.
