Shortcuts to Tiles & Combo Pages?

Is there any chance at all that we can get a Shortcut directly to the Tiles or Combo pages? I figure people work with them enough to warrant them. I remember when they were right in the Quest Menu. I miss that. The current method, [Alt+Q] -> [G] -> [T] / [C] works well enough, but I'll bet the new shortcuts would be used a hell of a lot more than people would think.

The "Y" key doesn't seem to do anything, if I recall. Nor do the H or J keys.

Well, Ctrl-H, Shift-H, and Ctrl-Shift-H flip the map, screen, or map and screen horizontally.

J, K, N and T are unused. So, how about K for Combos (kombos?) and T for Tiles?

Ahh that'll definitely help when I'm doing stuff on the go with my laptop, since its number pad is going out on me. Probably the same for a lot of others too.

While were on the subject, How hard would it be for striking U for undo to Toggle the action on and off as opposed to the "Undo and Forget" Approach? I strike undo by mistake a lot when I'm editing tiles in any kind of a hurry.

More or less this wouldn't be so much a Redo command as it would be allowing undo to undo itself.

Oh, right, ... don't forget to put the shortcut key next to the name of the thing in the menu! I.e. Tiles Page (t) and Combos Page (k)
