Bug Description

Control+P is used for preferences, but the preview deck toggle was also recently set to control+p. Preview deck will need some other keybinding to function.

Whoopsy.

My vote is to move away from the "CTRL+InitialLetterOfTheWidgetName" scheme for widgets visibility. It only make sense in some languages beside English.

What about using simply "CTRL+1" , "CTRL+2" etc. ? So we have easy to remember bindings you can operate with one hand. I found that practical for flipping widgets during a set without stretching to different regions of the keyboard. Moreover, we can easily extent to use the complete row of numbers.

Patch changes the keybindings like proposed in #1 and changes the wording to be less geeky, as discussed in lp:1064614. It also adds context infos for translators as part of lp:931489.
