one issue comes to mind -- if blackbox proper falls dormant in the future, an integrated bbkeys will also fall dormant. one of the major strenghts of having all the tools separate is that each one can be developed/debugged separately from blackbox itself. with that said, i'm indifferent to having bbkeys rolled into blackbox -- if sean/brad think it's a wise decision, cool, one less app to start... if not, that's fine with me (even though i'd like to see kbd menu control :-))
