I forget to mention close-tab shortcut (ctrl+w) which is common to Windows.
I agree (in case you tacitly said so) keyboard shortcuts are really important for usability and i agree select-all is really important. Related to this, there is a select-word shortcut (alt+space) which selects the word the caret is at, afaik Windows lacks natively this useful shortcut. I didn't know you that multiple selecting items on class browsers works pressing Alt Gr (for me left and right alt keys work differently), it's nice you mentioned it :).
