nothing has been published thus far. discussions will be ongoing on the qt 
devel list.

F5 for reload? sounds like a good use case for introducing standard shortcuts 
to QML as we have in the rest of Qt/KDE (also discussed @ devdays, btw).

beyond that, this sounds like it probably needs some design thinking (as 
opposed to "drive hard and fast to the nearest implementation") to consider 
how to make keyboard triggable actions available in a way that works in a 
componentized environment (QWidgets also fails here, btw :)

currently, no.
