<!--  

The Right Handed Illustration keyboard layout takes the approach that
the ideal keyboard setup for a (right-handed) artist using a drawing
tablet involves two things:

* Never putting down the stylus
* Never moving the hand from the keyboard

This first version of the layout places most of the tools
that one would need under the left hand.  If your goal is
illustration work or drawing in general, and your primary tool
is the Calligraphy or Pencil tool, this may be an optimal set
of bindings to use.

The left side of the keyboard is configured as follows:

1       - Selection Tool
2       - Bezier Tool
Shift-2 - Calligraphy Tool
Ctrl-2  - Pencil Tool
3       - Eyedropper
4       - Node Tool
K       - Paint Bucket Tool

Q       - Union
W       - Difference
E       - Simplify
R       - Toggle Dialogs
Shift-Ctrl-Alt-Q - Set Clipping Path

A       - Move Selection Up
Shift-A - Bring to Front
S       - Move Selection Down
Shift-S - Send to Back
D       - Undo
F       - Redo

Z       - Zoom Out
X       - Zoom In
C       - Flip Horizontal
V       - Flip Vertical

Future improvements:

* Have a "Delete Node" verb so that one doesn't have to reach
  for the "Delete" key to delete nodes
