See shell/data/kbdconfig for the keys the window manager is currently 
handling. Also sugar/README has informations about global shell keybindings.

Note that these are only the current status and not by design. On the 
olpc keyboard we will have a bunch of special keys to activate the 
frame, the chat etc... I'm not sure if there plans to use also some 
Alt+key combinations, I'm ccing Eben in case he has ideas about this 
already.

AFAIK this has not been discussed yet. It might make sense to use the 
GNOME guidelines (or some variation of those).
