``startup.el'' explicitly does not load terminal-dependent code
(i.e., ``term/'' stuff) if you are running a window system.  This is
seems wrong, as terminal-based customization is entirely about
keyboards (well, pretty much), and window-system-based customization
is (almost) entirely unrelated to keyboards.

My suggestion is to separate displays from keyboards better.  Seems
to me things would work right if both were loaded, but maybe there
are some interactions I don't understand.
