I confess I'm more used to click on the send button. I do have the nasty 
habit of hitting Ctrl-S quite often in any text application (it begun when 
I used MS Word which crashed every now and then ;-) .

I don't know if, e.g., Alt-S would break usability since shortcuts are 
usually Ctrl-?, while Alt-? is reserved for menus. In alternative Ctrl-E, 
perhaps?
