  9. Menu Keyboard Equivalents and the Option key.
  10.  
  11. In our DoCharKey method we return kODFalse whenever command+option and
  12. command+shift+option keys are detected since we do not have any behavior
  13. tied to these modifier combinations.
  14.  
  15. These key combinations are incorrectly interpreted by ODF as menu keyboard
  16. equivalents. For example, pressing command+option+S or
  17. command+option+shift+S will produce the equivalent of command+S.
  18.  
  19. I can work around this by intercepting these key combinations and telling
  20. ODF that they have been handled. It seems like this behavior should be
  21. corrected in the framework.
