...and I wanted to restate that the most important outcome of this will be a 
document where app developers can look up which shortcut ranges are still 
free for them. The most severe annoyances come from applications that don't 
respect the (currently unwritten, but essentially already there) rules for 
assigning shortcuts.

If we can say "Your app uses a shortcut outside the defined ranges", such 
cases can be fixed, and everyone wins. Except for the "compatibility" people, 
but those are really, really supposed to have their own shortcut schemes, and 
not using HIG-violating ones by default.
