TableViews don't support checked items.

That's non-standard selection behavior - checked lists are a more elegant 
solution to this problem. However, this can be done at the application level if 
desired.

Can you provide some examples of non-application-specific behaviors associated 
with function keys?

Again, the application is free to do this - but I don't think that it should be 
encoded into the skin.

You can file a ticket for this but I can guarantee you that I will never 
personally implement this.  :-)  There are not many use cases for "type over" 
behavior these days.
