Well, for 0.2.3, I don't think the shortcut dialog will make it in - I need to 
look into how it needs to be implemented.

But when I said missing key shortcuts, for the moment I meant things like "I 
would like to be able to do X, Y and Z by pressing a particular key, and I 
can't at the moment. Please add it :-)"

As I say, it it completely possible, but it depends on how long it takes to do 
- if it looks like it will be a while, it will wait for either 0.2.4 or 
0.3.0, depending on how development goes. When it does go in, every key 
should become user-definable however.
