David:  Using win key as default shipped in E17 instead of Alt ? btw my
keyboard has not win key

Zmike:   problem by adding that in wizard is that the user doesn't
know/understand the problematic on that step, and it will not understand
too when it happens (talking to an user as an user, not a dev), so it
doesn't understand e17 internals

Solerman  when the Alt key is used inside an OS (or inside an application
of the OS, on this case photoshop), it is normally used with a mouse
combination (for example "by pressing alt while you are drawing, it makes
your movements linear"), but by doing this, e17 catch the event as "we want
to move the virtualbox window" and this is was does, instead to give the
event to the virtualized environment, this affects of course to any
application running inside it, since virtualbox is "just another window"
managed by e17


Just like "evas blacklisted gl cards", there's some situations where we
need to "blacklist" binding behaviours (like in virtualmachines, which
should pass some important events to the virtualized machine instead of
affect its "window"). Having them in a (preconfigured) e17 settings is a
good thing where the user can add more or remove them
