Cool. Applying this to blackbox, I found, that this is possible there,
too, with commands like: 

KeyToGrab(Right), WithModifier(Mod4), WithAction(ExecCommand), DoThis(alsaplayer --relative -10)

in ~/.bbkeysrc

But actually I now configured the otherwise useless multimedia keys on
my (itouch) keyboard with "hotkeys" like. Thanks for this pointer.
Alsaplayer rulez big time. If only re-sorting of the playlist was
possible, or am I missing something again?

ciao
