#108 root menu and workspaces menu key combo

[Anonymous]

I miss a key combo feature to activate the workspaces
menu which is normally activated on the desktop by the
middle mouse button. Futhermore it would be nice with a
key combo feature for the root/blackbox menu too.. And
even one for activating the blackbox toolbar when
necessesary:-)

just like there is a key combo for the "switch to" menu
there should also be for the workspaces (most
important) and root/blackbox menu..

its frustrating having to go to the desktop everytime
you want to open up an iconified window or to start an
app in the blackbox menu.. no fun having a blackbox
menu if you have to start your apps manually in xterm
every time because you cant reach your desktop...

there really should be keycombos for workspaces menu
and root menu

would be really nice if it was possible to make a
simple combo like Control+right mouse button opens up
the root menu and Control+alt+right mouse button opens
up the workspaces menu (with iconified windows overview)

There is a solution for opening the root menu via keyboard:

Please read answer 2 to understand why this workaround is
needed.

Feel free to adjust the solution to work with middle-click,
which would give you the workspace menu.
