I fact I gave a closer look at shorcuts yesterday and I failed to find toolbox shortcuts clashing with regards to usual text formatting shortcuts. The only one that clashes with usual Ctrl-B and Ctrl-I is 'Edit-Invert' (Ctrl-I). My guess is that changing it to Ctrl-Shift-I to have on-canvas text editing is a minor sacrifice ;-) Btw, when it comes to text formatting, we should remember that some fonts provide more than usual 4 faces. In an Inkscape feature request's comment one of Inkscape's developers suggested introducing "Make bolder" and "Make lighter" commands. Please bear that in mind when it will be time to design on-canvas text editing ;-) As for the big picture, I would love to see applications like Scribus, Inkscape and GIMP using consistent shortcuts where applicable. A while ago we did an investigation in our CREATE project: http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/index.php/User_interaction_implementations That may be of some use for you.
