Indeed, keyboard shortcuts known by heart are a much quicker way
to achieve things than a mouse or pen, given you have the keyboard
nearby.

I wouldn't say that it will never be done in one or another way.
At least similar proposals were made in the GIMP UI brainstorm:
http://gimp-brainstorm.blogspot.de/search/label/tool%20options

I'm not sure whether this idea would make it to the roadmap.
After some discussion at the more suitable gimp-gui list I could see
the possibility to make it into Bugzilla and then someone needs
to implement it some day.
For the time being I suggest the keyboard shortcut solution as mentioned
above. Here you find keys and mouse quick references to memorize the 
shortcuts: http://docs.gimp.org/
