1. I don't care for applications registering global shortcuts without telling me and without giving me the oppurtunity to disable them. I start a application i don't know, accidently press some button combination and something happens. Don't like it. No global shortcuts without my consent. Basta. A application is allowed to advertise actions it thinks are appropriate for global shortcuts, and give default values, but after starting the application the first time they arent active. It's opt-in.
I am somewhat split on this. I can see the reasons for that but I think the reason against it is stronger: You want users to start using an app right away and if a user walks from one machine to the next it would be nice to have mostly (barring clashes which should be rare) the same shortcuts on both.
I'm with Michael here, I find the sudden missing functinoality in one application due to stolen shortcuts *very* disturbing, and an automated way to turn them off would be nice indeed.
