So I'm the only one using keyboard shortcuts then? You actually File->Save with your *mouse*? How to you enter text on your text layers? For the record: some shortcuts require me to drop the pen, others I can swing with it between fingers. But I doubt I've done File->Save with mouse or pen for 15 years, consecutively. And yet there are items deep within menus I've forgotten that take hunting for. If I remember the name or the description of the thing, why must I wander around seeking the right menu or sub-menu? What is TITo really, aside from more robust/intelligent keyboard shortcuts? I'll try and checkout the branch and see what it's like in person, but I can't see what the harm is. From the what I've seen so far, it could only be a slight asset to a (granted) small sub-set of users, but not something that would hamper *anyone's* workflow/experience, whether they actively use it or not.
