will not grab I<space>. The I<space> keybinding will only be active while keynav
is active (after you press a key sequence that invokes B<start>.
+In case of a keyboard layout where semicolon is just reachable by
+pressing Shift, the activation key combination actually might not be
+I<ctrl+shift+[other character]>, but just I<ctrl+[other character]>,
+e.g. I<ctrl+comma> instead of I<ctrl+shift+comma> on Swiss-German or
+German-German layouts.

If you aren't sure what the name of your key is, you can run xev(1) and press
each key you want to learn about while the xev window has focus. The output
will include the keysym name (like Shift_L, or Return, etc)
