As for the window manager capturing the functions keys, yes, that is what I said. The fact that F10 was skipped for canvas switching means that kicad is catering to a specific platform. I’m not likely to switch window managers on OS X, nor are other OS X users. Yes we could remap our keys but why should we? This should work out of the box.
While I agree with you in principal, can you imagine what a mess our hotkey definition code would look like if we had to avoid window managerkey mappings for every Linux WM? Good luck with that. AFAIK, there isno wxWidgets code for determining WM key mapping so fixing the mappingat run time is also not likely. That being said, if you run into anissue, please send a patch with the requisite #ifdef/#endif wrapped OSXspecific key mappings.
So, any thoughts, OS X folks? It would be nice if the canvas switching had hotkeys that worked out of the box.

Here’s a patch to use Alt-F9,Alt-F11,Alt-F12 on OS X. Please apply if others agree.
