If we don't use QAction/KAction, but make the freehand tool react directly
to single letter commands we should be able to gain a lot. Like:

 * switch zoom level
 * switch to panning
 * change parameters in the paintop
        * size
        * brush
 * change opacity

etc.

As with so many things, I started working on that, but then something else
suddenly had urgency and I dropped it :-(.
