System Information
Windows 7 64Bits

Blender Version
Broken: 2525f9c
Long standing behavior since at least 2.6# versions

Short description of error
If one deletes certain existing key from the keymap and export said custom keymap, upon importing again the deleted keys are "magically" restored

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
This is one of those cases I am unsure if it's a bug or an actual feature

Go to user Preferences> Input
Create a new Keymap Config preset
Delete some random existing keys (pressing the X)
Export Said keymap using "Export Configuration"
Delete said custom keymap
(Some times reverting to Blender default wont restore the original configuration completely, one must press the "Restore" button manually on several editors)
Revert to Blender default
Now "Import Key Configuration" and select previously exported custom keymap
The randomly deleted keys are some times back in the list and activated instead of being gone as per saved preferences.

Export of custom keymaps do not handle deletions, only modifications/creations of shortcuts…

Thanks for the report, but would not consider this as a bug for now, rather a limitation/TODO topic. :)

Sorry about the false alarm then, some times the line between features, limitations and bugs is a bit blurry for the common user.
As a suggestion for improvement perhaps just support exporting the "disabled" state of the keymap is a simpler workaround(?)
