Hi all,

I would like to have some UX-advice input first, before working on a
patch related to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32368
(Undo/Redo shortcuts do not adhere to the basic scheme of Gnome).

Any objections to change the default shortcut for Redo to ctrl+shift+z
(undo is ctrl+z). I verified the behavior of other programs, and I see
most of them (randomly: Firefox and on Linux (Mint), Adobe Reader on
Windows, Twitter (v2.2.0) and native 'text editor' on Mac OSX, ...) uses
ctrl+shift+z for a redo action. I found 1 application during my random
search that also uses ctrl+y as redo: Word for Mac.

I do not agree: I never had to use ctrl+shift+Z as shortcut for redo,
and I used gnome for years, and now xfce. AFAIK Firefox and Thunderbird
have both, ctrl+shift+Z and ctrl+Y.

I think we need to choose the shortcuts our users are used to use. And
mainly, our users are MS-Windows users. What is the basic scheme of
MS-Windows ? Is it possible to have the default shortcuts depending on
the OS / Window Manager ?

Best regards.
JBF
