Description

Editor toolbar is not fully keyboard accessible: the three drop-down menus are in the tab order, but the other buttons are not. Standard keyboard shortcuts are available (ctrl+b, ctrl+i, ctrl+u etc) but users are not informed of this. There are not shortcuts for all buttons, e.g. create link, insert image etc. NOTE: the editor can be configured/ disabled on a per-user/ site-wide basis.

I have added keyboard shortcuts for the editor. I've also added an editor shortcuts help button that is displayed when the html editor is in use. The help popup lists all the available shortcuts.
