How many examples do you want? Windows, KDE, Xfce, pretty much every
one with the concept of a window operations menu.

Yes, those are menu item mnemonics, not direct bindings, because no
window manager is going to steal character input for window
operations. You typically invoke the menu with Alt+Space, then use the
mnemonic; in this use, it is similar to Emacs’s prefix maps.

Alternatively, the CUA standard used to specify Alt+F10 for
maximization and Alt+F9 for minimization; Xfce still honors that in
default keybindings.
