Productive hidden keyboard shortcuts in Gnome3

You might remember my previous post about what I wish to have in Gnome3.

I have just found out some from "gconf-editor".

To reach to Favourited Items;

After pressing "Start" button, you can press <Control><Alt>Tab combination to switch betwen Dash, Windows, Topbar etc.

Selecting "Dash" will take to your the list of your favourited items.

Just press <Control>Enter to start a new instance of the application.

Switch between multiple instances of same application;

You know when you press <Alt>Tab to switch between multiple appilcations.

If you have multiple instances of same application, reaching to Arrows key hinder your selections.

Just press <Alt>`  (the one above the Tab) key to swtich.

Well...this isn't a big discovery, but if you have not known them, it might be of some help.

 

What I wish to have in Gnome 3

Gnome 3 is one of the desktop shell design revolution. All the changes result in more aesthetic, clean and productive UI and UX.

To me, it makes me focus and work on one thing at a time. Simplification of workspaces to one vertical list may be restricting for some users but simpler. Overview of all windows by just moving the mouse to top left corner or a press to start button works very well with quick and beautiful transition even without high power graphic card. Filter applications by typing names is very much preferrable for me since I previously relied on Gnome DO and launchy. I won't be explaining more of how useful the new notification system and integrated chat software.

After all, Gnome 3 gives me better control of the desktop and be more productive, although it is a little bit tedious to install in Nutty.
With all these good stuff, I am sure you would agree with me for following wish list.

1. Keyboard shortcuts to favourite items
2. Keyboard shortcut to start a new instance of running application.
3. More system settings options. (Integrate Tweaks options.)
4. Keyboard shortcut to open notification bar and its items.

I am a keyboard addict and hate moving my hands to mouse for simple repeatative tasks.
