--- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Timing is fine for the 6.2 -> 6.3 cut over, but we are another 5 years of
"legacy" use of F11 shortcut for Stylist, now as a Sidebar deck.

Have the comments in the 2014-12-17 Design meeting [1]. But it is true that
F11's role for Full screen has become common practice [2] -- except macOS
<CMD><SHFIT>+F.

And that the LO Communities comments in 2011 on Ubuntu bug 891539 [1][2] all
suggesting a <Ctrl>+T, to match <CMD>+T, of OSX for the Style & Formatting
dialog to free up F11 for Full screen toggle.

But some finesse needed for the associated actions -- current use of F11, or
<Ctrl>+T. And we might take a look for macOS support using <FN>+<F11> in
addition to <CMT>+<SHIFT>+F, for keyboards that support it.

So, I am OK with doing this, but it needs to be tested and well then
documented/published as a change at the major release.
