The things that annoy me currently

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.

Great idea for apps like kwin or plamsa, no way of switching the applications via alt+tab or something like that in a default installation will make sure we'll soon develop KDE for ourselves again ;)

Those are no applications. Those are ... i don't know the right name ... the desktop? I don't expexct those shortcuts to be off by default.

By yapplications i mean amarok, yakuake ( which does it right imho today ) and so on. When i started amarok the first time noone informed me of the now accessible global shortcuts, noone asked me to active them.

How am i supposed to know they are there? Look them up? Find out when accidently triggering one of them?

Just activating them without telling me is not the right thing to do.
