Hi. The problem with shortcuts is that they all are in unordered mess. And the only way to fix that is to establish a policy on shortcuts. And not "we take whichever we like" policy. It's more like doing a proper user experience testing.

For example, most drawing shortcuts - A, S, Q, X and W until recently - are situated in the left part of the keyboard. So mapping is one hand on those keys, and right hand on a mouse. Now those shortcuts have started to spread to all of the keyboard, dramatically increasing mileage of finger movements. So, even if you don't like moving building_tools back to W, please consider using D for it: delete action so close to S key has been the reason for many swear words and Ctrl+Z (another left-hand shortcut!) presses.
