Oh, no, I was referring just to the emacs shortcuts, which /are/ an
issue in gnome2 apps. As Havoc says, I don't really think most people
actually know about the changeable shortcuts, so I don't think that will
be an issue. I certainly didn't know about them until someone filed a
bug against Evo asking why it didn't have them :) [Bonobo, of course.]
