They are all named in the keys and mouse reference, but it's indeed a
good idea to add these names to the tooltips, for example in the form:
<Tool name>: <Whatever the tooltip says now>
Feel free to provide a patch for this :)
What about: <Tool name>: <Description> (<Fn based shortcut> | <Letter
based shortcut>)
Indeed I find the letter based shortcut easier to use (Fn keys are
difficult to reach on a laptop keyboard, particularly Apple's, but
well, that may be just me) and, more importantly, easier to remember
(since there is no direct mapping between the position of the tool in
the toolbar and the appropriate Fn key anymore, these are difficult
to remember, while letter based shortcuts are usually more like
mnemonics).
