Timofonic: I'd suggest you to raise your awareness about this and then modify 
hotkey assignments from within eeschema resp. pcbnew. You could then evaluate 
if such modifications would represent a good path to some more homogenous 
appearance.

Having said this, there are of course no bug "danger" about this. It is solely a matter 
of possible default assignments for upcoming releases. It's not only a matter of unification, but 
also on efficient usage: Example: on drawing traces, I use four quite adjacent keys for this 
(X=start, V=via/layer swap, F=finish, Space=posterize track). The latter I redefined. Since Space 
was already assigned, I assigned "0" for coordinate zeroing.

I think this would be a great usability improvement if the hotkeys are arranged 
homogeneously in both applications. This is >one usability issue that seemed 
very weird to me as trying to switch to KiCad and not used to complex design 
programs.

I'm not sure if this change could be substantial to cause bugs in the upcoming 
release, that's something developers know.

What do you think about it?

What is your intention or goal with this?

Oh, just a contribution to documentation, whether one could use it or not - that's 
his or her matter. I created this for >>an employee who's quite mouse oriented.

From the hotkey export for eeschema and pcbnew I created a libreoffice/pdf
sheet that's intended to provide a comprehensive view on the hotkeys.

For this purpose, the hotkeys for both subsystems are put together, and
rearranged according to two criteria:
1. Those with comparable functionality in both subsystems and especially:
the same key - are listed in parallel.
2. The functions are grouped in function category, about to be in order of
usage in typical projects.

Comments/changes welcome (however, editing the content collaboratively in a
wiki would be better, or intentionally a few people only take care of this).

Regards,

Rob
