Description James Forrester 2013-01-15 19:57:21 UTC
Key commands should be able to vary based on language/locale and platform. E.g. toggling something as Bold could be:

* Ctrl + b (Windows, English)
* Cmd  + b (Mac OS X, English)
* Meta + b (Solaris, English)

* Ctrl + f (Windows, German)
* Cmd  + f (Mac OS X, German)
* Meta + f (Solaris, German)

... etc.

Comment 2 James Forrester 2013-01-18 00:43:01 UTC
Now merged, will go out in 2013-02-04 release cycle.

Note that the internationalisation aspect (Ctrl+F rather than Ctrl+B for Bold in German) is WONTFIX as directed by the Language Engineering team, who advised against.
