        <pre>This is invalid, LO provides multiple methods for accomplishing exactly the
requested function, or even the external Extension with encoded macros.

There is not reason for LO to implement in core a user defined modifier based
(e.g. <Alt> or <Ctl>) shortcut mechanism beyond the provided methods noted
<a href="show_bug.cgi?id=118285#c1">comment 1</a>. 

Please read the manual [1]... either AutoText (entering defined "shortcut" +
F3), or the AutoCorrect (Replace & With tupple) methods will provide keyboard
driven replacement.
