Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: shotwell
Shotwell uses the square bracket ("[" and "]") keyboard shortcuts for
rotating photos. This is fine for users of US/UK keyboards and other
keyboards in which one is not required to use a modifier key to get the
square brackets. However it is quite annoying for myself and others with
different keyboard layouts. I for example have to use AltGr+8 and
AltGr+9 to get them. Because I rarely use the square brackets, I cannot
find them on the keyboard without looking. This means I rarely use them
for rotation.
As an alternative I propose the Ctrl+R and Shift+Ctrl+R used by Eye of
Gnome for example.
I am running Shotwell 0.7.2.
