hey all, im rewriting the keyboard shortcuts plugin from scratch. One of the new additions will be to allow user-configurable keys. Im wondering if I should allow meta keys like alt/option/ctrl etc? Or would shift be enough?
Supporting meta keys except for shift makes the whole thing a lot more difficult because of the way browsers implement keyboard events, but if people think meta keys are a must-have, I can probably do the extra work involved.
Any strong opinions either way?

support for ctrl would be great. I like the ctrl-enter of kmail for sending the email... Andreas

ctrl-enter will be a special case. In master I already support that. It cant be a user-settable key because you would have to enter it while you're in a text input field. And for obvious reasons keyboard shortcuts is turned off while an input field has focus.
So I specifically test for ctrl-enter, and allow only that while you're in the compose window.
