(Get the code!)
Hello Quentin, thanks for writing such a cool music player (I'm using it as I type this!)
Anyhow, I had set ctrl-right (that is, the control key and the right arrow key) to jump to the next song, space (and later ctrl-space) to play/pause the current track and ctrl-j to jump to the currently playing song.
The focus was in the song list itself, though I just now tried using any of these commands after highlighting a couple of different widgets like the pause and next buttons (I'm using the Shimmer Desktop layout that comes with Xubuntu).
I'd lean towards ctrl/alt/super having priority, maybe make an alert when there is an app-wide shortcut already set that a widget in a layout wants to use and offer to change either the global shortcut, or simply disable the widget's shortcut (though you might have to explain what the loss in function would be).
Thanks for getting back to me,
Andrew
