Howard,

Regarding the ⇧[letter] issue where a different Action is selected in
pane 2 than the default for [letter]:

When I press ⇧[letter] and mouse to an Action from the list in pane 2,
I can click the dot and 'Set as Default for [letter]'. This becomes
the default for ⇧[letter], and is independent of the default for
[letter]. Make ⇧[letter] and [letter] defaults for the same Action to
have the expected result. I think this is more versatile, but the
letter in the contextual menu should reflect whether it's capitalized
or not. Currently it's always capitalized.

I have 'Capitalized keys modify action…' checked in Prefs. Unchecking
this means the same system can be used in pane 1 to set different
default Objects for [letter] and ⇧[letter].
