Easy (Default) Shortcuts

[maymage]

The operational shortcuts, those for really working on the document, are just a few

• Ctrl+{1,...,6} -> select shapes
• Ctrl+z -> undo
• Ctrl+c
• Ctrl+v

Those are not all ergnonomically not really nice, when one hand is holding the pen,
as you're forced to press two buttons with one hand at the same time.

Suggestion: single letter shortcuts,

• {1,..,6} to select the shapes -> this can be easily remembered and seen from the UI
• <- and -> for undo and redo.

Caveat: 3 would lead us to the text entry, where we have to be able to use the keyboard differently.
We would then need to press Escape to return to the ground state.

Other possible shortcuts

• a -> arrows
• c -> circle as opposed to Ctrl+c to copy
• r -> rectangle
• etc...

that is, shortcuts with mnemonics.

A bit late, but I am sceptical about adding shortcuts that are not a combination of <ctrl>+... because it might interfere with the app in unexpected ways/is difficult to implement in combination with the typewriter
