Will there be any way to remap the control keys so that we can use command * instead of control *?
Experts will know more than I do - but probabely using ige-mac- integration is a possibility:
I've actually got that keyboard cleanup as part of my planned extended input device support.
What we would have to do is decouple the hardcoding where masks are checked against events. A combination of changing events and using dynamic values for masks will allow us to switch modifier keys on OS X, to use extended input devices like wacom tablets with express keys for modifiers, and even other input devices as well.
Would it be possible to eventually submit a patch for GDK? This would benefit the largest number of people.
This can be as simple as defining portable variants of masks in GdkModifierType, the correct values being determined at compile time, based on whether we are compiling for Mac or not.
