There really needs to be a desktop-wide key-binding manager of some kind
that serves all applications.  I love the Emacs idea of 'keymaps' and
'keymap prefix' keys.  I'd like to reserve combinations involving the
"windows logo" key for the window manager, and have it never use a key
not involving that one.

Could the key with the little "menu" on it be used as a prefix for panel
and application menu-bar commands?
