There are a bumber of requests concerning shortcuts planned for the next 
version:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=150645
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=149547

You can add some more request (for example - optional read-only shortcuts).

You can search in the newsgroup - there was several posts concerning the 
possibility to reuse EditingDomain across several diagrams - it can solve 
some synch. problems.

for shortcuts.
