Notes:
- In order to change the order of key press processing, you
need to figure out how that relates to the XEMBED protocol,
or Plug/Socket won't work correctly.
- The single letter rule seems rather arbitrary to me.
- Having behavior different in different apps seems
highly confusing to the user. (Re: your b) solution
of allowing the user to replace the key press
handler with one with a different ordering.)
- Your proposed changes don't appeal to me much, because
they fix your problem, while still leaving us having
to answer everybody else's complaints in this area
(these are:
- emacs keybindings don't really work because they
conflict with the normnal accelerator space.
- there are considerable problems with input methods
that have keybindings that conflict with the
normal accelerator space.
)
I'd be really, really inclined not to make any changes here
before 2.4...
Regards,
Owen
