  1. Given that Alfred is a workflow program, I have to say this is a terrible workflow solution. Only in a minority of the cases the same shortcut in different programs is part of a single workflow. In most cases we need to set shortcuts in different programs, and they do different things in different workflows. The whole point of shortcuts is being context-dependent. Right now I have no sane shortcut left anymore, and I only have a handful of workflows (but heavily shortcut-dependent). I want to be able to get rid of most of my automator workflows (which are essentially apple scripts in disguise, just for shortcut purposes), and have everything at the same place in Alfred. Moreover, Alfred already knows which app is the active app. Who should it force us to recheck the app when we are creating app-dependent shortcut?! It sound a bit redundant, doesn't it? Any news about allowing the same shortcut for different apps in different workflows? Btw, for all the others on this thread: Just edit the `Info.plist` files for your different workflows externally, and assign whatever shortcut you want. The restart Alfred, just to be sure. Alfred imposes the shortcut limitations only at the workflow creation interface. It won't recheck possible redundancies when reloading the workflows.
