Sure, but that would be wider-ranging issues that need their own reports
(streamlining shortcut documentation; making it easier to access a list of
shortcuts in the app...). Related to that, I feel like I've seen somewhere an
enhancement request about an in-app shortcut overlay accessible through the
Help menu...

Starting from "List of General Shortcut Keys", it's for the most part
categorised tables. One could argue it needs splitting into two distinct pages,
sure.

OK, this makes sense to me, it clarifies things and is quite actionable.

The notice can be improved in the equivalent Impress[1], Draw[2], Math[3],
Chart[4] and Base[5] pages too, and it is even entirely missing from the Calc
one[6].
