With some work and use of various X utilities, some of the things
you had hard-wired keys for can be brought back.

Ok...  There's been lots of talk about ways to get the DM
functionality into OSF...  WHO's gonna' do the work...???  Is
HP going to say "The tools are there, all you have to do is
write a macro, or create a file, or ..." and make EVERY user do
the same work over and over again (or do without) or will HP
INVEST in it's customer base and do the work ONCE for all the
Domain/OS users?

(I realize that Jason can't answer this, but I don't want us to
loose sight of the fact that someone needs to pull all the
pieces together...  It is a very different thing to say
something is 'technically possible' versus 'done and available
for FTP/purchase/request...')
