Clean up the contents of the top bar menus to improve legibility and usability:
- Add missing items: "Cut", "Copy" and "Paste" commands to manage the clipboard contents.
- Unify font case: newly added items don't follow the font case of previous ones. Title Case is recommended.
- Change keyboard shortcuts to use the standard Ctrl key. Write them in the form "Ctrl + C" where C is the key to press.

Yes, I understand problem 1. I don't see why a menu item can't have the same scope as the equivalent keyboard shortcut: whatever the keyboard shortcut would act on when used, would also the menu item. Also, there is some visual feedback: selected devices have a rectangle around them. So do selected regions. If currently there is any ambiguity in the visual feedback, it also applies to the keyboard shortcuts. My point is that scope and feedback, as currently implemented, aren't incompatible with adding menu items. They'll both share them as currently implemented.
About 3. I just see that the majority of online apps don't have problems with Ctrl. Maybe there have been keyboard event management improvements in the last time.
I understand. For me Ctrl+Q doesn't quit the browser, it closes the Pixlr app or shows up as "true" in the test app. Ctrl+T|N|W aren't used in Pixlr at all. I think they just simply avoided browser/tab shortcuts, except for Q, which works for me (in Chrome, not in Firefox).
