Is this generally useful? If you are proposing this as a general way to 
get around useful key sequences getting stolen by the local gui, it 
doesn't seem the kind of interface that users will want. Can we remap 
such key sequences in some way to make them accessible to users without 
needing to run a monitor program and type in sequences longhand?
