The basic idea in XXE is:
[1] Give the user a basic set of accelerators.
[2] Let the user add or redefine accelerators (almost) at will. See 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/configure/ch06s01.html.

If you copy the attached file in your <XXE_user_preferences_dir>/config/ 
(C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\xxe\config\ on Windows), you'll get 
what you want for *DocBook* documents (I supposed that you were talking 
about DocBook's emphasis element).

The attached file contains these 2 bindings:

---
   <binding>
     <keyPressed code="B" modifiers="ctrl shift" />
     <command name="docb.convertWithAttribute"
              parameter="emphasis role bold" />
   </binding>

   <binding>
     <keyPressed code="I" modifiers="ctrl shift" />
     <command name="convert"
              parameter="[implicitElement] emphasis" />
   </binding>
---

Note that you'll need to use Ctrl-Shift-B and Ctrl-Shift-I instead of 
Ctrl-B and Ctrl-I.

It is possible to bind Ctrl-B to a command, but not Ctrl-I which is used 
by the Edit menu. For consistency, I have specified Ctrl-Shift- for both 
commands.
