I'd also recommend avoiding single letter keybindings for most things except the tools (but I wont be surprised if you dont think the Function keys should be changed either).
For similar reasons I'm not sure about the keybindings for Next Zoom Shift+' Prev Zoom ' (abbreviations definately not allowed!) but I find the whole idea a bit odd, it is like a seperate undo history for Zoom which is not something I've seen before.
Group and Ungroup use the shortcuts Ctrl+G and Ctrl+U respectively which are reasonable. But given the shortage of avialable keys, the Gnome HIG, and the keybindings used by Adobe Illustrator I would suggest you consider changing it to Ctrl+Shift+G for Ungroup.
Hrm, agreed, I think...
Er, tentatively agreed about group and ungroup shortcuts, though I need to think through it some more.
Abbreviations seem fine to me in that case, and as we have a lot of functionality to cover, and we'll probably never have anywhere close to 26 tools. We may as well use plain keys for some things.
