What's this mean?  Basically, never use "Ctrl/Alt/Shift/Return", and instead type them as "META", "ALT", "CONTROL", "SHIFT", and "RETURN".  The reason for this is that the help docs won't stay in this wiki when they've matured - they'll get moved into the main source repository, and using all-caps refs will make it easy to do search-and-replaces to have everything work correctly when it's embedded in the application.

Finally, please wrap all keys inside a <kbd/> element, as that's how it'll be done in the help docs.  Sure, it looks ugly when you look at it on the wiki page because Wikimedia is evil, but it's better for actually getting it into the main source code eventually.
