Not as a snark or anything, but where do you get a list of defined usability and accessibility keyboard shortcuts? I can only think of a couple off the top of my head that seem ubiquitous, such as ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-x for copy/paste/cut and then probably ctrl-u, i and b for visual text formating. I just tried ctrl-z and ctrl-shift-z ctrl-y in my open applications that support text entry. Thunderbird recognized ctrl-z as undo and both shift-ctrl-z and ctrl-y as redo. Undo and redo went back to the last dash I wrote, going over a period. I presume there is some logic behind it, but I can't tell you what. Trillian recognized ctrl-z as undo and undid my typing one character at a time. It didn't recognize ctrl-shift-z but it did recognize ctrl-y. I'd be really curious to see a list of commonly recognized shortcuts and what programs support them. It will probably be more and more useful as we start developing web applications as applications more than pages.
