Created attachment 103226 [details] Hungarian keyboard as an example of non-English keyboards Currently the shortcut for "Show Grid" is Ctrl+Shift+' The ' character does not exist as a key of it's on on most non-English keyboards, and as such should not be used in shortucts - same goes for any special character that does not have its own key on many/most non-English keyboards, such as /;=#[] etc. On a Hungarian keyboard, it is actually impossible to use the above shortcut because ' is entered via Shift+1 and so it will result in Ctrl+Shift+1 instead.
Hm, I guess we could ship a shortcut scheme for hungarian keyboards, but restricting ourselves to what is available in the intersection of all keyboards is going to limit us to just 1..0 and a..z -- and that's just not enough.
The alphanumerics combined with Ctrl/Alt/Shift not enough? Even if we avoid combinations using more than one modifier keys, that's about 140 possible shortcuts if I'm correct. Otherwise, you would need to create custom schemes for dozens of layouts. The ' character for example is only used in a few languages, and for any language that has extra characters like accented ones those will replace dedicated special character keys.
Sorry, we're trying to follow what most applications do, here, so people coming from e.g. photoshop won't be surprised. We will not create a default scheme that only uses alphanumeric characters, though if you want to submit one, we can package it. It won't be the default, though.
