That was a previous objection when we were preparing to release Emacs
22.1. Now we have time to sort out any breakage that complexity might
bring, so I'm not so worried about that. The complexity is necessary
because Windows makes it hard to wrestle back control over a few
keybindings from Windows itself. The current patch may look more complex
than it really is because of the "rough state", which consists of
commented out debugging code, much of which seems unrelated to the
keyboard changes.
