Simply make the hot key configurable and everything's ok.
BTW, I'd split the video card and GUI in two different plugins. The video
card plugin should produce an output (i.e.: a bitmap, a frame buffer or
whatever you call it) that would be captured and displayed by the GUI. This
way, it becomes easy to update the video card emulation without rewriting
the GUI and to use different GUIs for the same video card.
In short, the GUI is a human-interface (monitor, mouse, keyboard) emulator.
