Please try to keep the number of default keybindings small as wm
keybindings tend to interfere with applications, particularly Emacs.

If W-TAB is cycle-windows, cycle-windows-backwards should also use the
W-modifier. This is needed to allow direction reversal while cycling
(cycling ends when you release all modifiers). Personally I use
W-C-TAB for forward and W-S-TAB for backward. M-TAB is used for
completion in Emacs.
As there seems to be some confusion about it (c.f. KEYBINDINGS), I'll
remind that "S-" stands for shift and "M-" for meta in Sawfish event
names. Because PC keyboards don't have a meta key, alt is often
xmodmapped to work as meta. Alt is denoted "A-" if you have separate
meta and alt modifiers. Also, ISO_Left_Tab is usually S-TAB. It
means tab to the left. There is no keysym ISO_Right_Tab.

Neither of these should have default keybindings because normal users
don't need them. I suggest W-C-q for quote-event.

I actually have this defined as a KDE global shortcut, not a Sawfish
binding. Works well although Sawfish knows nothing about it. I don't
know if you can do it like that in Gnome.
