you can have configurability without the actions.
I think it would be a good idea to have a (koffice wide?) GUI that allows the 
setting/getting of the configuration keys.
The KoToolFactory::setShortcut(const KShortcut & shortcut)
would have to be made public, but it should be pretty trivial to make a nice 
GUI that finds all the tool factories and shows their shortcuts, allowing the 
user to change them.

I would even say its a great little isolated projects that we could turn 
into a junior job or something like that.

Anyone up for mentoring that?
