The question should in fact go to the general Squeak audience. The only
thing I'm responsible for is how keys are reported to the Squeak image. And
the rule for this is:

	The control key gets reported as control key.
	The alt key gets reported as the command key.

Simple, isn't it?! You probably wouldn't like to get the control key
reported as the command key (which would sort of work for these shortcuts)
and the alt key as the command key. Or at least I would not like it, because
of the total confusion that occurs when 'Sensor controlKeyPressed' returns
false, even though you HAVE pressed the control key ;-)

On the other hand, *Squeak* not the VM defines how shortcuts are
interpreted. Meaning that right now *Squeak* reacts to the combination of
'command + x' (Alt-x on Windows) by executing the 'cut' command. Nothing
prevents you from redefining it (see ParagraphEditor
class>>initializeCmdKeys) to use your preferred control keys.
