Default Please change the \"e\" shortcut

Whithout any confirmation box even if you have not played in the turn, having a shortcut for end turn accessible in one key press is not a good idea I think. Especially when the key is "e", neighboring on the keyboard "d" for buying province defense and "r" for recruitment.

Please change the end turn shortcut to shift + e or cntrl + e or something like this, hard to type by error. Staling a turn because of a typo is not fun.

Sounds reasonable

I really wish that the keyboard shortcuts could be externalized into a config file so that they could be reassigned to suit the individuals preference.

as a temporary workaround you could use remapkey.exe
an old and free microsoft tool

I second this. I've already inadvertantly ended some turns prematurely. I'd also like to see the host dialog brought back for single player, since I do my turns in bits and pieces, but I think that's wishfull thinking.

I also would like to have an option to see the host dialog in single player; I'm so used to hitting end turn and then exit in order to quit, nearly every time I want to stop playing I end up hosting the turn instead. I've also hit "e" a couple times by accident, and that's no fun either.
