However, it is quite clear that a first-time KPDF user would expect settings under a Menu button and not trying to remember a whole bunch of shortcuts.
When talking about a "grafical" settings interface, there does not necessarily have to be all the features - just the most common and the most used ones -> eg. rotate screen for 90° in all directions, possibly rotate for other values, fit page to width/height, gamma control, zoom etc.
agree with you. Users should be given more freedom. To achieve this, current key event listening code needs to be refactored. I will try to work on this

This is a very useful feature, I hope it can be added to kPDF too.
