IntelliJ IDEA “Make project automatically” woes

Question

Back in December I switched from Eclipse to IntelliJ IDEA but within a couple of days I switched back. Today I tried IntelliJ again and basically I have only one issue left.

What if you just remap the keys from Ctrl+F9 to Ctrl+S? Basically you will just keep up with the habit of pressing Ctrl+S since you do that in Eclipse - just a matter of pressing a different key in IntelliJ.

IntelliJ IDEA 12 indeed comes with out-of-process compiler which compiles the project classes automatically, but it seems to be unpredictable - you might refresh the page and the class is not yet compiled. So in the scenario with JRebel the off-process compilation is no use, unfortunately.
