Description Jeff Miller 2011-03-17 17:01:03 PDT 
With the exception of Alt+Left Arrow and Alt+Right arrow to go back and forward (which seems to be a standard convention on Windows), web pages shouldn't swallow alt-key combinations, these should bubble up to the client.

I think you mean "any other alt-key combinations".
