I have a little program that provides a service. The service pops
up a window and lets you choose from a list, then pastes that value

The problem that I have is that I want the window to only remain
open while the keyboard shortcut for the service is still held
down. i.e. cmd-shift-E. Once the keys are released then I want
the window to be hidden again.
What if the user selects the item from Services menu using the mouse?
Or that there is another service which uses the same keyboard
shortcut (and being "first" gets that menu short cut, leaving yours
with no short cut)?
Or if they want to use keyboard access to get to that list and pick
an item from it (which requires them to release the short cut key
combination)?
Why not just have the window go away when the user selects the item
from the list? Much easier to implement, and doesn't suffer any of
the above problems...
