Hi,

I agree (again) that the shortcuts are not well explained and we will work
on it. Showing a list of all actions far away from the context in which
they should be used is more of a patch than a solution though. Let us
search for a better way :). Tooltips will probably be the first thing we'll
try.

Cheers,
Doru
