--- Comment #1 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Shortcuts are indeed badly implemented and lack, for example, of locale,
non-ASCII keys (bug 115052, UI redesign at bug 115527).

The implementation defines an accelerator including modifier keys like
"KEY_MOD1 | KEY_F" (see cui/source/customize/acccfg.cxx) and allows to bind
this as F_MOD1 to any UNO command in
officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Accelerators.xcu. There is no
room for sequences. And your own styles don't have a UNO command assigned.

Besides the need to improve the internal key handling from ground I don't see
sequences as a good solution. It works for mnemonics where you press alt+F+O to
open a document. But these mnemonics are clearly visible via underlined keys
(depending on OS/DE). Sequences make things overly complex.
