I agree with Teddy that one should be able to edit the key bindings. I
would make the defaults as similar to VS as possible but the users should be
allowed to change them to meet their specific needs. Also, users may need
to change key bindings depending upon various editor plug-ins they may
employ which will have their own set.

The best way of remembering the keystrokes is to be able to define your own
keystrokes.
A certain keystroke might be not easy to remember for someone, but maybe for
others it is very easy to remember because it is the same key they've used
in other programs for the same thing.
