D'oh!
That makes sense... somehow I'd got the impression that you couldn't
install a hook to catch WinKey...

Hmm... how would you do this in an OS agnostic way? What should have
precedence - consistent interaction (from a user view) with the
underlying OS / WM or consistent cross-platform behaviour of an app?
I guess you could have three options; OS-default, intercept-all,
pass-through (pass-on unhandled keys).
