What I can't seem to do via keyboard is get to the "Filter..." input box That could be useful. Perhaps <CTRL-F> from here could be re-purposed for "Filter..."? How many people currently use <CTRL-F> from the Packages pane? (I never have) The next thing to determine is how to move to the Class pane. <TAB> could be a good candidate? Also, <CTRL-TAB> currently opens an Inspector on the currently selected package or class. Is that a common requirement? <CTRL-TAB> might be better used to cycle between the tabs in the bottom pane, which would align with common usage in web browsers? The above functional reassignments of <CTRL-F>, <TAB> & <CTRL-TAB> could provide a reasonably good start to keyboard-only browser use. Where can the current definitions of these for Calypso be found? > Kkhmmm. I'll try to survive.

If someone can provide a lead in to the related definitions for Calypso's <CTRL-F>, <TAB> & <CTRL-TAB> perhaps experiment with it and propose a PR. cheers -ben
