- In this case, I think that the SHORTCUT.INF file should have priority.
- If the application has specialized needs, it should try to meet them
- only after it has met the needs of the user (global shortcuts).

- Well, I would prefer F1-F10 (as the letters appear on the keyboard) but
- other than that I have no problems with this.

- Yes, this is an excellent idea.
