blind shelf brackets

>I posted once before on this topic. but last time I thought I was limited to drywall. Things are looking up -- there are wall studs in the right places.

I have in mind something like a metal keyhole on the back of the bracket which would slip onto a screw head. ( But I'm posting because I bet there are better ways.) There are a couple of issues: slots will be cut through the front of brackets to hold glass shelves, and an expensive antique glass collection will sit on theses shelves. So, ... I have to be concerned that the method to hold the glass in the slots be essentially foolproof with respect to not slippping out or cracking because of unexpected stresses.
