Could you be a bit more specific? You could describe the way you  
launch that application – or copy a bit from the buffer which is  
created when you choose "Send Bug Report…" from the Help menu. BTW,  
is this Help menu in Emacs' frame or in the  menu bar? The X clients  
can't "delegate" the menu-bar...

Of course!

No. You could try to create your own keyboard layout. See for example  
http://wiki.neo-layout.org/browser/mac_osx/ or http://www.sil.org/ 
computing/catalog/show_software.asp?id=94. Surely there are more  
tools to edit the keyboard layout, which is very easy in Mac OS X.  
You might need Peter Maurer's Key Codes application: http:// 
www.manytricks.com/keycodes to determine the Mac OS X key codes.
