0006408: Can't use 'p' letter in world gen alphbetic seeds
When you are in advanced world gen parameters, and you try to enter a seed value, if you try to use the letter 'p' in your seed string, it opens the pre-set map editor creating a preset map with no features.

That 'p' command to open the editor should be disabled when a user is entering a specific seed value.
No tags attached.

Confirmed (to clarify, this is when entering a seed under [e]nter advanced parameters, not [s] on the first screen). Interestingly enough, "p" is the only character affected - 8 and 2 don't scroll if they're entered in a seed.

Fixed as of 0.44.10 - not sure when exactly it was fixed, but 0.44.01 is the closest major version.
