But many WMs (I think kwin, too) trap M-TAB and probably many other
bindings used by emacs.  Fortunately most if not all WMs let users set
their own shortcuts.  Here all window manager shortcuts use the Windows
(Hyper) key, so all C and M bindings are reserved for use in
applications.  So I would't care much about what WM uses a key by
default.
