I'm thinking at the moment it might be necessary for the command table for glimpse (defaults to 'glimpse' I believe) to :inherit-from the global command table maybe. There's a note for 'define-presetation-translator' that the translator will only be applicable when the command table provided as an argument in the call is one of the command tables from which the application frame's command table inherits. I don't know if this is a restriction for 'define-presentation-to-command-translator' but I'm going to investigate this some more.

The note mentioned above is in the Allegro CLIM UG btw, not in the spec. (and not in Lispworks UG either) so I don't know if its relevant.
