[Shotwell] keyboard shortcuts (and feature request etiquette)

[Jim Nelson]

The F1 help displays appropriate shortcut keys for the tasks each page discusses, but I don't believe we have a single page listing all the keyboard shortcuts.  That's another good idea; I've ticketed it at http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/6246  I don't know when we'll get to doing it, but it's certainly something we would appreciate an outside contributor trying to do.

Thanks for the explanation. 

I'm afraid my laptop doesn't have a number pad, so the keypad 
shortcuts won't help me much. Is there a page somewhere that lists 
all of the keyboard shortcuts for Shotwell? (Are there keyboard 
shortcuts for cropping, for instance?) I've tried Googling without 
any luck. 

Cheers,
