Of all those, the ones that would actually interfere with Emacs seem
to be:

  Alt-TAB, Ctrl-Alt-D, Ctrl-Alt-L, Alt-SPC.

Are there any others?

We should recommend that Emacs users turn off those keys in their
window managers.

Which window managers define these by default?



Alt-TAB: almost all new WM:s these days (including Gnome and KDE).

Ctrl-Alt-D, Ctrl-Alt-L, Alt-SPC are defined by Gnome (metacity).
