I wouldn't go that far.  Emacs is a cross-platform software and it is valuable 
that it is so.

The keyboard is a limited resource. Conflicts are likely to arise when 
cross-platform software is used on multiple platforms.  Emacs may not be able 
to look seamless on each and every platform.  That is life.

But, you and I probably agree that allowing Win key as meta can solve many of 
these problems.  That should be an available option on Emacs.  So, if Yidong 
and Juanma can come back and tell us how to make that happen, we would have 
made some progress.
