Re: Ctrl, Shift & Alt (Over multiple forms)

Seems like a very confusing UI to me. You don't need shortcut keystrokes
for everything. Chances are, you'll just overwhelm the user who has to
remember them all (and if the user can't remember them all, they're doing no
good).

At the moment the app doesn't have any documentation. The UI is
transparent / consistent to such a degree that there aren't many
questions after decompression. (1/2 days) Ctrl, Shift and Alt are
thematic, slanting the interface for one subset of the data you're
working on. Selections (traditional on-screen highlighting), Flagged
Items (filtering/manual identification), Flagged Selected items, and
Settings for any of those subsets.

The entire interface is reduced to 6 buttons on the Main form and is
highly intuitive. No drop-downs with endless submenus. It's tight and
"organic." (I'm happy with it)

Still intuitive, schmintuitive. If it doesn't feel absolutely smooth,
it doesn't work at all. I'm wondering how to keep the interface across
multiple forms synchronized with the command key states.
