Hmm, Ralf describes another problem (which should be in a different bug report): Applications are able to catch (almost) any key combination, before they reach g-s-d or whatever session-wide service executes (not-so)-global shortcuts like volume control. This obviously has nothing to do with OOo.

@Ralf: This bug seems to be about replacing CTRL-SHIFT-J with F11 in OOo, which both are application-level shortcuts (where the latter is more and more getting a standard for fullscreen, as in Firefox, Evince, Sudoku etc.). Neither the settings-daemon nor the window-manager should "force" an application to fullscreen. CTRL-ALT-Fn AFAIK work almost always because the kernel catches them before X.Org.

And by the way: Please don't replace F5 with F11 in OOo Impress, many USB presenters have a hardwired F5 button because of MS Office PowerPoint.
