After getting my hands on a copy of snow leopard i found that my old reliable quicksilver (b54) was one of the apps that didn't make the change so gracefully as the preference pane didn't display. After downloading the latest version from google code, my issues with the preference pane were resolved, but i found that the 'Current Selection' and 'Finder Selection' proxy objects stopped working. Nothing i do with them works. Thinking this might just be an issue with snow leopard, I switched over to my normal leopard install (10.5.7) and upgraded that to b56a7. Same problem. Downgrading to b54 immediately fixed the problem. I'm not sure which version this behavior broke, as i said i've been using b54 for quite awhile, but it definitely isn't working now.
interestingly though, ctrl-g and ctrl-esc still work just fine.
