Not everyone running a DAW or NLE application runs a panel. If I had the choice in OS X, I never would have while running FCP, but it's pretty hard to kill the panel without gimping applications in that OS. Both situations sound sensible to me. But at the end of the day it's just a keybinding, and if you can't find one that makes sense, it's not a huge loss. (my 2c anyway). -A.
