[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 83467] F11 keyboard shortcut for fullscreen rather than styles & formatting dialog

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83467

--- Comment #7 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
Note to self --must reread before posting...

Timing is fine for the 6.2 -> 6.3 cut over, but we are another 5 years of
"legacy" use of <F11> shortcut for Stylist, now as a Sidebar deck.

Have the comments in the 2014-12-17 Design meeting [1]. But it is true that
F11's role for Full screen has become common practice [2] -- except macOS
<CMD><SHFIT>+F.

And that the LO Communities comments in 2011 on Ubuntu bug 891539 [3][4]
suggesting a <Ctrl>+T, to match <CMD>+T, of OSX for the Style & Formatting
dialog to free up <F11> for use as Full screen toggle.

But some finesse needed for the associated actions -- current use of <F11>, or
<Ctrl>+T with modifiers. And we might also take a look at macOS support for
using <FN>+<F11> in addition to <CMD>+<SHIFT>+F, for keyboards that support it.

<Ctrl><Shift>+J shotcut assignment can stay for legacy I guess.

So, I am OK with doing this, but it needs to be tested well and then
documented/published as a change at the major release.
