[openbeos] Re: Haiku-key

Ever considered that the vast mayority of users could come from ms-windows
which does use CTRL+... As shortcut.
Therefore I would prefer to have the "switch CTRL and ALT as shortkey" as an
option (like Be did (although its a hack)

It's not only about swallowing pride -- in fact, Alt is a better key than
Ctrl, as you can still type as normal if you hold the modifier key with
your thumb, something you cannot do if you press it using your pinkie.

I vote -1 on that change.
