Even better would be that you have to restart deskbar in order to assign
the new shortcut.

There's another common problem with keybinding:

If poeple try to assign the shortcut to a non-standard key that many
keyboards have keymap.translate_keyboard_state() in
AccelEntry.__key_press_event returns None
Unfortunatly, I can't figure out why, yet.
