Package: kwin
Version: KDE 3.0.3 
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

This bug was reported once and fixed, but I find that it's broken again.

The WIN key is defined by KDE as F13, and works upon pressing (bound to \
windows-menu).

This doesn't let me use the Win key to bind a lot of other, quite useful features.

For example, it is very natural to bind WIN+number to switching to a given desktop, \
or WIN+arrow to directional desktop navigation.

I think it is best if the WIN key worked in the following way:
1. It works as a modifier, i.e. if I press it and then press some other key, it is a \
multi-key combination. 2. If I press it and release without pressing anything else, \
it can work as a regular F13.
