Feature Request: Ability to flip right and left windows key actions

Hi you have designed a great little program but I have two feature requests which would in my eyes make it perfect:

One, you guys give the option to call Start8 with the left Windows key and Metro with the right Windows key but no option to do the reverse. The only other option is to have both for Metro or both for Start8. 

Why is this an issue? Many laptops (if not all) do not have two windows keys. While I like Start8 because it gives me the option to use the legacy style menu, I prefer metro. But if I make the Windows key function for Metro, I lose the ability to call Start8 through any kind of a keyboard shortcut. I would rather not have Start8 as my primary and Metro as my Secondary, but as of now that is the only way to have a keyboard shortcut to both.

 

Secondly, legacy start menus used to have a submenu for recent files. Start8 has access to recent files only under the specific applications that use those files but nothing that would tell me for instance the last 20 files I've opened of any type. Is there currently a way to add this myself? I seem to remember having to check a box in taskbar settings that added that feature in XP-Win7.

 

In my opinion though, these issues are very minor. This is otherwise a great app.

Thats an interesting request.

Regarding the recent docs, thats an option on the configure tab.  Under "Which shortcuts do you want on the right hand side?".  Scroll down and find Recent Items and then set that to be a menu.
