Bind keys without providing a "shortcut"

[alz]

Is this correct or incorrect?

The only way to bind keyboard shortcuts is:

• by exposing it as a plugin action
• by describing it within a plugin tool

The problems:

• If done via a plugin action, each desired shortcut needs to be have a dedicated plugin listing.

• If done via a plugin tool, that tool needs to always be active to have the shortcut be active. But within SketchUp, you can only have one tool active at a time, which means the shortcuts would turn off if a different tool was used.

Or, am I overlooking something obvious?
