Hmm, before I get lost in the wood. Here are my current thoughts about the
key bindings.
Attached is a sample html page containing some js-functions I found in the
web. These functions allow the user to override the default browser
behaviour (e.g. CTRL-S which normally open the Save As Dialog in FF and
other browsers) with a custom function.
Here it overides CTRL-S to open an alert window.
So why not do similar in a RAP application and use those key-combinations
for global key bindings (e.g. org.eclipse.ui.bindings)?
Are there problems I don't quite grasp?
Regards,
Niels
