This is a Windows limitation in the function GetKeyNameText which for the comma
character does not return anything.   This function is used in saving the 
shortcuts)
This is maybe due to the fact the this character is not located in a standard
position in the keyboard layout.

The allowed characters (combined with Ctrl, Shift, Alt) in shortcusts are (hex 
Ascii
values):

    $08, $09:
    $0D: Name := MenuKeyCaps[mkcEnter];
    $1B: Name := MenuKeyCaps[mkcEsc];
    $20..$28:
    $2D..$2E:
    $30..$39: Name := Chr(WordRec(ShortCut).Lo - $30 + Ord('0'));
    $41..$5A: Name := Chr(WordRec(ShortCut).Lo - $41 + Ord('A'));
    $60..$69: Name := Chr(WordRec(ShortCut).Lo - $60 + Ord('0'));
    $70..$87: Name := 'F' + IntToStr(WordRec(ShortCut).Lo - $6F);

and a few others, but you see the gaps there.

I am afraid is rather difficult to fix this.
