Problem in rotation text using ALT + ]

This is a sample of my keyboard. If I want to write [ or ] I have to use ALTGR key.

The rotation with ] or Alt+] only works with selected nodes.

I can confirm this using Inkscape 0.46+devel r21525 on OS X 10.5.7 with XQuartz 2.3.3.2
MacBook Pro with Swiss German keyboard layout.

I can reconfigure the Option/Alt key with xmodmap (keymapping utility for the X11 window manager), but this works only for Alt + click (select under) and Alt + cursor (manual kerning) keyboard shortcuts.

[, ] can only be typed using Option + 5, Option + 6 (when entering text) and cannot be used for the 'rotate' command Alt + ] (whether I remap Option to Alt_L or not), nor can that command be remapped to other keys (as of current SVN).

This is a known issue with non-qwerty keyboards, but I can't find the relevant bug # at the moment.

Confirmed on Windows XP, 0.46 and rev. 21526.
Alt+[ act as if I used Path>Inset, which should be binded to Ctrl+(...
Same problem with Alt+] and Path>Outset.
Note that I also have to use Altgr key to get [ and ] (French keyboard).

@JazzyNico - sure about the 'text' tag? I have the same issues for other /keyboard shortcut commands like

- show hide grid [#] (Option+'3')
- show/hide guides [|] (Option'7')
- …?

related:
- zoom previous/next ['`', Shift+'`']('`' is Shift+'^')
- manual kerning [Alt+'<', Alt+Shift+'<', Alt+'>', Alt+Shift+'>'] ('>' is Shift+'<')
- …?

OTOH these work fine with 'de_CH':
- toggle snap [%] (Shift+'5')
- invert selection [!] (Shift+'¨')

I think its a broader usability issue how to handle keyboard shortcut commands with different keyboard layouts/modifier keys (languages, laptops without numeric keypads (?, those KP_* shortcuts) etc.).
-> tags + 'ui'?

Why can't we delete comments? ;-)

on second thought - those other commands can be redefined in
key/default.xml, i.e. inkscape could ship with different keymap files
for languages / keyboard layouts. Only problem left are those commands
who currently cannot be remapped and how to figure how many of them
there are. Maybe 'Transforming by keys - (pixel-size) move, scale,
rotate' are the only one?

Setting importance to medium, because this is the only way to rotate text with 0.47.
0.48 will allow users to change characters rotation, kerning, vertical position... and thus reduce this report importance to low.

0.48 will allow users to change characters rotation from the text toolbar...
