Your fried might be gconftool-2, it can certainly get the value of 
certain property and set a value from commandline. This way you can 
automate the setup of your shortcuts using the shell script that does 
something like:

$ gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_1 \
     --type string F12

$ gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_1 \
     --type string thunderbird

You can also 'gconftool-2 --dump /apps/metacity' to dump your settings 
into xml, but I didn't find a way how to reimport such xml file back. 
Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, or it simply is not 
implemented at all.

In any case, I'm missing this functionality as well :-(
