Yes, they are and sorry I wasn't clear. There is one major way in which they are platform-dependent and a few minor ways. The major was is that the menu keybinding take precedence over the ordinary buffer keybindings when they overlap and under windows this happens a lot since many keybindings we copied from Emacs and so begin with control, but under windows the menu shortcut prefix is also control. So things like "c-x;o" get mapped to "cut; insert an 'o'" under windows and "switch windows" on the mac (where the menu shortcut is a separate key). There is a way to disable the keybindings in menus under windows (in the preferences dialog) that you can use to change this behavior if you want the Emacs ones to "shine thru".
