Thanks for your Advice Diederik and Alexandre, with regards, to the tools tips, I think once you are proficient with using Inkscape, you won't notice the contents of the tools tips as you know what each Icon stands for. When you are a novice and are just learning Inkscape, (Which I was not so long ago you are constantly reading the tooltips to make sure you are using the right tool and at the same time noticing the keyboard shortcut, and after a few times using a particular tool, you start to remember the shortcut and then start using it, which helps you to become more proficient with Inkscape.
Cheers, John

Does any one know why the keyboard shortcuts have been removed from the tooltips? I guess this was intentional, but has there been any discussion about this? It's not only John and me who are wondering, but it's also being mentioned in this bug report:
