Dear Maintainer,

After upgrading to 3.8 I noticed that some keyboard shortcuts no longer
work. In part this is due to the UI redesign that replaces menus with
buttons.

Examples of broken shortcuts:
 * Switching contiguous view was previously possible with Alt-v c.
 * Switching the dual page mode was previously possible with Alt-v d.
 * The "best fit" zoom level was previously reachable with Alt-v b.

I could not find any replacing shortcuts for this lost functionality. If
there are, please close this bug with a reference to them.

Helmut

Also, Strg-F used to bring up the search bar, this also does not work
anymore. Previous versions had the ability to change the keyboard
shortcut by simply pressing it when the respective menu item was
selected, but not even that works :-(

Thanks for looking into this.
