I'd second the call for SPACE to activate <play/pause> in Rhythm Box. A
one-touch <play/pause> is essential.

Try this: playing your guitar, learning a song. You have to
<play/pause>. You can't be fiddling around with CTRL+SPACE or whatever
when you are trying to pin down a riff.

Or what happens if the phone rings when you are rocking out? Or you're
eating cornflakes in your best suit?

As for accessibility, having SPACE as <play/pause> is a darn sight more
accessible than having to fumble all over CTRL+SPACE or whatever.

Also regarding accessibility, if SPACE needs commandeering for
accessibility applications, surely it can so be without stopping SPACE
being used for <play/pause> when accessibility applications are not
active.
