One thing i would like to add. In kde we have a central daemon that manages the global shortcuts for all kde apps. Other apps talk to him by dbus. This was done (afaik) because on the mac this behavious is a must. But i came late to the party when the decisions were not only made but implemented. David probably knows more than i do. So in an ideal world qt apps running in a kde environment should use that daemon too and under gnome register the global shortcuts directly (AFAIK gnome has no such thing as a central daemon). So this is really 5.1 material because if we try to solve it we should do it right.
