* It is not possible to assign a shortcut to the view modes 'single page', 'facing pages' and 'overview'. In addition the shortcut ctrl-v which is assigned to the menu entry view-modes does not work.

* Furthermore, if I assign the shortcut shift+> (on my German Keyboard, the > comes with a shift) to any function, using this shortcut has no effect, while this worked perfectly for example in kdvi. It seems to me that almost no shortcut that involves shift+(special character) is working. I have tried shift+! , shift+§ and shift+$ . The latter is probably most interesting, because it is one of the few special characters that are at the same position (above the 4) at the German and US-Keyboard.
Special characters without shift work and shift with ordinary characters (like shift-f, shift-a, ...) also do work

* Finally I would suggest that all menu-related key-bindings like alt-f-a for 'save as' should still work when the menu is hidden. I cannot imagine any reason (apart from probably a difficulty to realize it) that people might want those key-bindings not to work any longer.
Even more sophisticated (but not as necessary) one could (when the menu is hidden) make it appear as soon as one presses <alt>, and make it disappear again, as soon as a menu entry was chosen.
