Yes, it does. I just tested on XP Pro.
I thought that Alt-Tab could not be handled this way. This key sequence
and those that involve the Windows keys are special.
I just did the w32-register-hotkey thing above and then bound [A-tab] to
`ignore' but it is not totally ignored. Hm, I say a very strange thing
that tells me this, but it is unrelated to the key binding - I believe.
You can however handle those key sequences with a low level keyboard hook.
