Hello Jani

I want to make a comment about this statement:

However the default keyboard shortcuts cause problems with other
software (Certainly f11,f12 and meta-1..n,0).

Right now I can't remember having any problems with f11 and f12, is
some widely used program really using those for something useful?
meta-1, meta-2, etc. (meta being left alt for me) are not causing any
problems either as ESC+1, ESC+2, etc. usually work with for example
xemacs and some irc clients.

I didn't find any bug reports/wishlist items about conflicting
keyboard shortcuts either.

It's quite hard to say if I'm only a part of a small happy minority
who very rarely encounter problems with the Old Good keyboard
shortcuts as my selection of frequently used GUI programs is quite
small (5-10).

for meta-1..meta-4 (meta being the same for you like me) there's
at least GWorkspace (amont other GNUstep software) that needs that shortcut,
along meta-h and meta-m.

for f11/f12 there is at least opencubicplayer and probably a bunch
more sdl games (programs) that need that shortcut, blender comes to mind.

i will try to find a way that makes these shortcomings a win:win
situation by providing some tool to get the old shortcuts from
copying a file from some examples/ directory.

i also work on a few more bugs to be closed, you will find
the current work at http://gnu.ethz.ch/debian/wmaker/
any help is welcome...

yours
guerkan
