It would be lovely to know why the button is blocked, before adapting the help. 
Pressing CTRL + Applying BOLD from the formatting toolbar is for example
working. I kind of liking direct feedback

CTRL does appear to block toolbars (Insert a table with CTRL pressed), thus
this might be expected

Drifting off, but another observation:
1. Open Writer
2. Insert a numbered list with 2 entry's
3. Place the cursor at one of those
4. Notice add to list being activated; which it should not IMHO (you can press
it, nothing happens)
