Customizable keyboard shortcuts in Lightroom would be great. I just find it so confusing that crop and brush tools and things like that have such odd keyboard shortcuts in Lightroom. I understand that changing that all now would be awful for many existing users, but being able to override them like I can in Photoshop would be helpful. Doesn't anyone else out there find they use to wrong keyboard shortcuts in the wrong program?

From the merged topic: See this thread for how to assign a shortcut to the fifth color label (default purple):

(Keyboard Tamer doesn't know about color-label shortcuts.)

Thanks for the tip Chris - Paddy looks real good, although I haven't been able to save a script yet...

Couldn't agree more with Rob. Is $99 a typo or something? And the website didn't provide much info to help a potential user justify such an expense.

$99 seems steep just for preset keys - am I missing something?

With Lightroom having such a huge amount of users by now, wouldn't it be about time to implement configurable keyboard shortcuts and stop burning all non-US/UK keyboard users?

Also adding programable shortcut keys to presets, like actions in Photoshop.
