Well, F1 and F2 are quite a bit out of home row, this app is going to be
keyboard heavy, like the Vim, so I want to follow same principle of staying
on home row. Ctrl-F is traditionally search command, so that's how it works
already. I was thinking also of ctrl-1 and -2 and -3 but that's usually 
what's
used for windows/tabs. I think I'll just have to figure out to change 
behaviour
of tab switching..
