Comment #14 on issue 11480 by james.su: Support GTK keyboard themes (emacs  
keybindings)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=11480

It's not that easy. For each key event, we need follow HTML DOM  
specification as much
as possible. See http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/keyset.html for  
reference.
Otherwise we may break many web applications.
The more complicated thing is, gtk keyboard theme not only defines keys  
like ctrl-a,
but also normal function keys, like Left, Right, etc. We can't just  
intercept keys.
We might need modify our webkit glue to move all key bindings related  
logics up to
RenderWidgetHostView::UnhandledKeyboardEvent().
I'll look into this issue more deeply and give feedback asap.
