Hi guys, I am not sure where this discussion is headed.  Whether these
applications of the windows key are "useful" or not is for the users
to determine, is it not?

The same web page also mentions that, Linuxen call the key the "meta"
or "super" key.  So, it is not unreasonable to request that we should
have the option under Windows too?

We are talking about providing the users with a choice between

- keyboard access to Emacs's own menus, and

- the fancy applications for a pair of modifier keys that Microsoft
dreamt up of as justification for putting its own trademark on them.

Is that choice so hard to understand?
