How to include Mate custom keybinding in application package?

Development Discussion

Hello,
I am packaging an application for visually impaired and I would like to have a keybinding packaged with that as well, so that the app can be easily launched. Any idea how to do that?
I thought I would package a gsettings override, something like

```
[org/mate/desktop/keybindings/custom0]
action='lios'
binding='<Alt><Mod4>l'
name='Linux Intelligent OCR Software'
```

But what if there is already "custom0" keybinding defined?

Thank you.

IMHO, to solve the task correctly, an installation package must include a script to verify possible keybindings conflicts, to preserve already existing customizations, etc.

Then you need to create "custom1" or edit "custom0", rather than replace it.
