I think it's better to stick with Roman letters, rather than the Fn. On some 
keyboards (Macs, netbooks, ...) the Fn keys require an unusual shift key to be 
pressed. That would be particularly inconvenient for functions like "start 
drawing a net", that initiate graphical operations. "n" is very nice in that 
case: I find myself wishing other graphics programs were so easy.
