Please see below for my comments having quickly reviewed all of the Pivot components (from trunk) that I could think of. I ignored TextArea as it is still under active development Apologies in advance for the long list.
Regards, Chris Can you provide some specific examples? Some (generic) keyboard shortcuts > make sense at the component level, but others are specific to an individual > app. The easiest way to create application-specific shortcuts is to add > entries to your main window's action mappings.
