Package: dunst
Version: 0.2.0-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Dunst default shortcut to remove notifications (C-space, from
/usr/share/doc/dunst/dunstrc.example) conflicts with emacs
set-mark-command (C-@ or C-space) and silently prevents emacs and other
programs from detecting that particular key combination.
When running dunst with the default configuration, pressing C-space
inside emacs will not have any effect (on emacs or other programs), in
fact even xev will not detect the C-space.
Here is the xev output when pressing C-space while dunst is running
(emacs will not detect it):

C-space is a pretty common shortcut for many well known programs,
therefore it will be nice to change the default dunst shortcuts or make
dunst propagate the KeyPress and KeyRelease of the space key so other
programs can ALSO see it, instead of hiding it.
