One possible solution might be to create a new user, replace your
configuration files with theirs, changing the permissions to suit
yourself.

I've almost gone down this route, myself, tonight.  For some daft
reason, occasionally something screws up and I cannot type unless I also
hold down the shift key.  Of course that makes it impossible to do
various things.  Messing with the keyboard preferences didn't help,
removing some hotkeys from the keyboard shortcuts preferences finally
unbotched it (not that I'd changed any of them in months).  I was
moments away from trying what I just suggested, and finally got things
working again by fluke.
