Why don't you try to rebuild those good shortcuts from different apps on
the wiki in order to check them out easily and try to add them to
Letters in some form? :)
Tab to switch panes, arrow keys to move about, etc. it¹s not all that
complicated, it¹s more that they actually did it.
Or, maybe better: let's try to build on the wiki an hypothesis on how it
could work using just the keyboard. :)
It¹s not really that big a deal to do, you just have to think hard about
the actual keystrokes.
I've listed my most frequently used shortcuts in the wiki at
<http://letters-wiki.heroku.com/ui/discussion>, and one request - I so
often want to find the message that I last viewed. It's always a pain to do
so, because I skip through nested lists using "next unread message", so at
any point the last viewed message might be at the other end of the message
list, or even in another mailbox!
With a shortcut for "next unread message", that skips to the next mailbox
if this one has no unread messages, I find that I rarely use the keyboard
in any pane other than the message list.
