Yeah! I suggested this on IRC long time ago, and I got a negative
response about windows-shisms whining (even though I don't use
windows at all since 1999 ;).

Copy and move files with keyboard shortcuts would be an awesome improvement!
Link relative and link absolute an even better improvement!
Say, Ctrl-Shift-L for absolute linking. But all GTK shortcuts are
user-defined, so we don't care much about default shortcuts.
