But not yet for Alt+key combinations.

If using the Alt key is desired then you may want to use my
AltKeyHandler macro available from:
http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/hillview/OOo/

The document contains instructions for 1.1.x

The instructions for 1.9.x are slightly different (thanks to Eyolf
Ostrem for these):

Installing under v. 2.0 (beta)
Adding the library
This is so that the macro will be available for use when required

     1. Tools > Macros > Organize Macros > OpenOffice.org Basic …
        
     2. Click “Organizer” > Libraries tab > Append …
        
     3. Browse to where the AltKeyHandler.sxw file is stored, click
        Open.
        
     4. If you already have a library called “AltKeySettingsDyn” do not
        check it as you will lose all your current Alt+Key settings. If
        you are updating AltKeyHandler and don’t have AltKeySettingsDyn
        then you have a very early version and don’t want to lose your
        key assignments then you will need to install AltKeySettingsDyn
        and use copy and replace from the your module LoadSettings in
        AltKeyHandler of the key assignments between the sub and end sub
        (do not include the line starting with sub). Before recommencing
        at step 1.
        
     5. Uncheck “Standard” but ensure “AltKeyHandler” is checked.
        
     6. OK > Close > Close
        
Setting up the alt key handler so that it works on all Writer documents
     1. Tools > Customize ... > Events
        
     2. In the events list, mark “Create Document” and click Assign
        macro
        
     3. In the Macros list box: Click the + next to “My Macros”, the
        plus next to “AltKeyHandler”, then click “AltKeyHandler”.
        
     4. In the listbox “Macro name”, select SetupAltKeyHandler.
        
     5. Click OK
        
     6. Repeat the same procedure for Open Document in the events list.

Thanks, Ian
