Hi Björn, all!

Missing time only let me spent a few minutes on this issue ... so just
some hints others might pick up.

requesting to change fullscreen shortcuts from CTRL+SHIFT+J to F11. Actually we
had that patch in Ubuntu once, but I reverted it because:

 a) Documentation was not updated
 b) It broke the cross-platform experience of LibreOffice

So if this is changed, it has to be done upstream (think l10n). Are there any
blockers to move fullscreen to F11 on all platforms? If not, I would upstream
the issue and EasyHackify it.

Three comments ...

First, our dear colleagues at Wikipedia provide a great table with
shortcut keys for different platforms. Except for Mac OS X, [F11] seems
common for all platforms - but I'm unsure why it doesn't work there
(some people claim F11 is bound for Exposé features, Firefox offers F11
for fullscreen view as well)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_keyboard_shortcuts#Window_management

Second, F11 is not the only related feature bound to F11. Shift+F11
seems used for new styles (from selection), and Ctrl+Shift+F11 updates a
style. So binding a given feature to F11 might break the similarity of
the other F11-keybindings.

Third, are we sure that the fullscreen view is more often used than
working with the Stylist? It seems we don't have a viable (easy to
remember) shortcut for that.

Other statements?

Cheers,
Christoph
