I wanted to create a simple ALT+S shortcut in my app to jump to a TextBox in my Windows Store App (no this is not the Win+Q search charm shortcut). However, this is not that obvious to get working app-wide, so I'll share it here: The obvious way to do this is assign a KeyDown event to your page using the typical "this.KeyDown += MyKeyDownHandler", or override OnKeyDown. However this has one problem: If any control that has focus currently handles key down events (like TextBox), this event won't be raised due to how event bubbling works. However there is another way to create an event handler that overrides the bubbling: UIElement.AddHandler.
