How many apps are affected? I only heard about emacs, which is definitely a power-user tool! Wouldn't it be possible to make some exceptions for applications which rely on ALT as modifier? If one of these apps is on top ... HUD will be blocked or deactivated and has its normal function?
Emacs, Inkscape, Blender. Probably many more in the set of applications with a huge amount of commands.
Keyboard shortcuts (and ideally any input "gesture") should be handled by a central service. Where applications register there commands and the service maps identical and very similar commands to single gestures.
Considering the technical and even more the political obstacles to such a solution, having an online database of shortcuts would be a move in the right direction. It should be a tool to harmonize existing shortcuts and to better plan the use of new ones.
