Armelius,
First of all, I want to thank everyone who responded. I can and will use EVERY tidbit of information! Thank you.
You suggested that I look in "System-Settings --> Keyboard and Mouse --> Global keyboard Shortcuts" for keyboard mappings. This menu does exist; it's where I was looking for "raise" and "toggle raise/lower". I see settings for alt-up and alt-down. There is nothing about raise a window or toggle raise/lower a window as in 3.5.? I'm not sure I understand how this works though. Did this get lost in the new development?
Regards,
George...

What you called "widget" is much more commonly refered as "Window". "Widget"
has different meaning in KDE 4.
You can try to set that shortcut via
System-Settings --> Keyboard and Mouse --> Global keyboard Shortcuts
KDE Component: KWin
you can search for Raise window
(haven't tried this myself, but this seems to be what you want).
Hope that helps.
