This certainly had me stumped as well until I found the bug Roman
is referring to (bug #39477). Realizing that '^' meant 'Option'
instead of 'Ctrl' got me a bit farther, but there are still some
niggles with the shortcut editor:

    1) Some odd keys are left out of the available keys you can
       assign shortcuts to, such as '[' and ']'--the default
       keybindings for increase/decrease font size on other
       platforms. Some keys show up in the 'Customize...' dialog,
       but are greyed out.

    2) Even though 'Option + <key>' and 'Shift + Option + <key>'
       are technically valid choices according to the LO shortcut
       editor, these are actually overridden by the Mac OS X
       keymap for inserting special characters (tested with US
       default keymap).

       Not sure of the correct Mac terminology for this, but the
       behavior is similar to what would be called "dead keys" or
       perhaps "third level" in X11. For example, the
       'Customize...' --> Keyboard area lets me assign Option +
       Shift + 9 to a LibreOffice function, but I get a center
       dot instead.
