Btw this Alt+& convention came from the WIMP paradigm, dwm is
anti-WIMP (because it manages the windows for you).
My/our convention so far is, that a frequently used action should be
bound to key bindings that are easy to access. I understand that
Mod1-{b,t,f,m} are less frequent actions, and I'd be open to change
them into Mod1-Control-{b,t,f,m}, I've no strong feelings about such a
change...
