We can add a list of keybindings on help.lp.net/Translations but it
would be nice to automatically inform or hint translators about the
available translations.
We can underline the letter, or put them KEY in brackets, but not all
actions have an associated text.
Exemple: Shift+Alt+C - copy original text.
It looks like most webapps don't provide a visual clue for their
shortcuts, but rather document them on the help page.
This is bug:

Do you know how can we implement such clues in Launchpad?
Many thanks!
Hi Adi,
That is a really interesting idea. One of the most successful examples of
keyboard shortcut use I have seen is the Gmail interface. They have a number of
useful designs, such as pressing '?' to get the help overlay, and a helpful link
near the bottom of every page that says 'Work faster with Keyboard Shortcuts'.
Gmail also don't bother with key modifiers, just plain old character keys like
'n' and '#'. I have seen these single-key shortcuts criticized as
"non-standard, against all convention" but IMHO they work well enough to
overcome any such objection.
Would any of these ideas work for your implementation?
Maris
