that behavior was subject of some other feature request. i guess it's
really a minor one, but i'll see what i can do about it ;)

now that one i'm not sure how i can address it cleanly. keyboard shortcuts
are indeed owned by top-level widgets and if you turn off the "keep tool
windows always on top" option then both mixer and connections widgets will
become top-level on its own and won't dispatch keyboard shortcuts to main
window anymore. it's all expected behavior: you give with one hand, you
take with the other. you can always press escape-key to hide away :)
