Access keys (i.e., keyboard shortcuts) can be defined for common features. Something like the following:

  • 1 - Homepage
  • 2 - Search box
  • E - Edit
  • R - RecentChanges
  • H - History
  • P - Preferences
  • D - Discussion
  • S - Save the current page (when editing)
  • C - Cancel the current edit
  • V - Preview the current page

Then, for example, in Firefox one could press Alt+Shift+E to edit the page.

For links, this is implemented as:

<a href="recentchanges/" accesskey="r">RecentChanges</a>

and for forms buttons:

<input type="submit" value="Submit" accesskey="s"/>
