The idea is nice, but I found problems with the listboxes and textareas: they 
now swallow "ctrl" and "alt" events. It means you cannot access Konqueror's 
menus anymore when a listbox or textarea is focused. Nor can you use the new 
"ctrl" accesskey system...

I think these issues (at least access to the menu) should be fixed before 
committing...
