number of commands available goes into the thousands the user needs
still to be able to see basic commands very quickly, so there needs to
be some hierarchy to the keywords collections that the user can explore
- some way of excluding whole classes of commands, and then letting them
in when the topic is of interest.
The other topic is that as well as shortcuts there are the user's chosen
buttons (at the moments, commands placed on the button bar above the
music by the user, done quite crudely). This feature is very useful, but
it is not obvious to the beginner that it is available. The command
manager would be the right place for it be showing up front.
