We allow "global" application-wide shortcuts to work in non-modal GUI elements
like ModelessDialogs or FloatingWindows. If it required special code in Impress
to make that work then probably because Impress didn't use the sfx classes that
implemented that feature.

IMHO we shouldn't allow that in modal dialogs. In case a dialog is modal by
intent it can be a disaster to allow for global shortcut processing. If the
dialog is just modal because of laziness, perhaps the best fix for the problem
would be to convert the dialog into a modeless one. Once we have got rid of all
modal dialogs that don't need to stay modal, this issue will be fixed in 
passing.

In short words: "modal" is "modal" and processing shortcuts in application code
will be a tunnel through this modality.
