disabling (and re-enabling?) shortcuts

One of my customers complains that accidental keypresses do strange things.

Is there a way to disable *all* keyboard shortcuts under Java plugin control?

I’d like to simply make them all “do nothing”.

It would be nice to restore them on plugin exit - but that would be a frill.  This user
would be happy to simply re-start Fiji.

Can I globally require control (command) to access keyboard shortcuts?  That would solve the problem.  Even better if I could turn this on/off on the start/exit of my plugin.

I suppose the brute force way to do that would be to write a macro for every keypress, with an empty action.  I’m hoping for something cleaner.
