Extension: Keyboard shortcut for menu item

[Jan Rheinländer]

Ok I understand the reason.

I'm currently testing a BASIC macro (which I can assign a keyboard
shortcut through the UI) which sends a URL to my
XDispatch::queryDispatch() method. That seems to be a possible workaround.

P.S. How do I answer to a thread if I only get the digest version of the
mailing list?

You can't, IIUC.  (I guess the main reason being that with leaving the
feature out entirely you avoid having to worry about how to arbitrate in
case of contention over key bindings among different extensions, or
between an extension and the LO core.)
