Description

Shortcuts that aren't used in currently focused window could be processed as global, so you can for example use a ctrl-key combinations in the edit box as audio or video keys. Audio keys already work on the grid - it should be more general.

The reason as to why such obvious thing isn't implemented, is because it's extremely tricky. As far as I can tell, there is no way to tell if a key arrived on the frame unprocessed (edit boxes seem to skip the event even after processing), and we cannot risk allowing keys to randomly trigger while typing text, EVER. Medusa did something of the sort with numpad, and it drove me nuts.
