<B> like building is good I think. Any probably we can also should add it 
to core in future.

I moved delete action to <CTRL>+<DEL> fixing this (it is anyway a bit of 
deprecated). Now I have two letters back. <N> and <D>. On the other hand I 
still have dozens of conflicts and many letters that use more than the 
possible 8 modifier combinations.

Suggestions always welcome (http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/DevelopersGuide/ShortcutsList).
Especially suggestion where I can move something into "X" space, which is 
underpopulated. :-)

E.g. ​CadastrePlugin uses <ALT>+<C> for "Cadastre" menu and ​CommandLine 
plugin for "Commands" and I find no free <ALT> combination with any of the 
letters in the two menu names (and at least for english version the 
mnemonics should be clearly visible I think).
