I disagree that this is the right approach. I prefer that the set of keys for which pass-through is currently effective be explicit within Emacs, for users and Lisp. If each key for which we want pass-through has an Emacs binding that specifies this (pass-through), then it is clear to everyone what that key does in Emacs (it is handled by the OS). Likewise, for Stefan's alternative of using `w32-passthrough-events'.
What if I want Alt-f/e/o/... to activate menus "File/Edit/Options/..." and also for all other menus that some package might possibly add? Are you proposing that I need to define one "pass-through" for each of "Alt-a..z", just in case? Also what if some package thinks it wants to bind M-f in some local map which I would't really care except that I do care that my menu shortcut now stops working? --- grischka
