Exactly and such a thing has happened.

I use the shortcut of ctrl-f8 to move focus to the status bar.

for some reason the shortcut stopped working this morning.

I looked in the keyboard preference pane under system preferences under 
Shortcuts to see whether or not this particular shortcut was disabled though 
how it possibly could be I had no idea.

As it happens the checkbox next to the shortcut was checked so what the hell 
was going on?

Time to restart the machine and thankfully - after the bootup process had 
completed - the ctrl-f8 shortcut was working again as though nothing of any 
import had ever happened, go figure <smile>.
