It would be better if we could stick to mouse clicks with modifier keys
(Alt, Ctl, Shift). OJ's keyboard focus is usually taken by the layer tree
panel. Unfortunately there is no key to toggle visibility.
There is also the problem that has been reported before that the arrow keys
change the current selection of layer AND pan the window. This causes
confusion and is what happens if you simply add another keyboard listener
and don't deal with the issue of focus.

Don't miss this year's exciting event. There's still time to save $100.
Use priority code J8TL2D2.
