  Hi, Aaron

  One approach would be to have two types of access keys.  If a control
  is assigned access key 'Z', the something like ctrl-shift-Z focuses
  and ctrl-alt-Z activates.  That way the user can make the determination
  at time of use.  This actual choice of ctrl, alt, etc should probably
  be configurable because of operating system and also access technology
  conflicts.
