I think the main problem was that I felt by what I understood as your telling me how to work with TextMate (or be ignored and irrelevant) – without knowing me or my what I do, and judging from Fred's reply this wasn't so far from how he understood you. Thank you very much for clarifying your support criteria!

Windows”. Of course I do support non-US keyboard layouts, but there is really nothing I can do about the fact that some key equivalents are awkward. They are that in Apple’s programs as well (as previous/ next tab in Safari).
Command-Option-Ä/Ö are a bit awkward, but feasible. Cmd-Alt-\ just isn't (on my keyboard with a German Mac layout). So I have to remap (that's OK); if something gets hard-mapped to Alt-E (€), I have a little problem when I hit on it at the wrong time; no big problem, indeed, but sometimes tedious. For the rest, see my other post.
