1) On OSX, the function key Fn needs to be pressed at the same time as the
actual F1-F12 keys in order for anything to happen. So the current change to
Calc now means that if I want to display the data source brwoser, I need to
press 4 keys in all to get a result, compared to 2 keys in current 5.0.2.2. 

2) Additionally, and even worse, Ctrl-Shift-F4 on Mac is assigned to cycling
through the open windows on a given desktop space.

In other words the change that has been made doesn't even work on OSX.


Now please tell me where the rationale is for introducing a change of this type
which causes a regression, as there is now no shortcut at all in Calc for
accessing the data source browser.
