Actually, Impression does Ctrl-Shift-Q, too, so as far as RISC OS
goes, this is the long established transpose shortcut.

Well, we cannot win here. Since the shortcuts of ArtWorks text lines
differ from those in Impression/OvationPro, the one I choose can
either be inconsistent with the rest of ArtWorks or inconsistent with
other applications. Guess, which one is more logical. It would be mad
to say that you need a different shortcut for transposing characters
in ArtWorks text areas than in ArtWorks text lines. That said, I think
nothing stops us from having Ctrl-Shift-Q as well.

Not really an option. If you had the choice between several new useful
fixed shortcuts or a single one that you can set up yourself, which
one would you choose?
