Vincent: why not introducing a "Developer" user, in addition of the "Admin", in the Jetty/HSQLDB package? It could even be done on snapshot versions only, since this is what developers use the most.
I'm not in favor of introducing a shortcut key because it would concern every users who might engage the shortcut by mistake, resulting in a WTF effect. Moreover, we already have too many shortcuts IMO, and they can be in conflict with browser's ones (think Ctrl+G for example). I believe a "Developer" user is what we really need.
