--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
The 'Repeat' action is a weird construct anyhow applying only to the last
action--and immediately removed once another action occurs. 

Not to be confused with Undo/Redo stack.

But it is convenient for use with a Mouse where cursor movement does not
clobber the prior action. While keybaord movement usually will (repositioning
for mix of accelerator, <alt>+E, R [or as localized]).

So issue is one of ergonomics for mouse users. The <Ctr>+<Shift>+Y shortcut is
difficult one handed.  While getting customization of the correct context menu
is beyond most basic users.

A 'two-finger' <alt>+y might be a more suitable one handed Shortcut for mouse
users?
