I like it; it feels more accessible than the key bindings window that
somehow always scrolled to the bottom.  I also like that the otherwise
orphaned hotkeys are now accessible with the mouse.

Redraw 'R' seems to have disappeared?

$ pcb nanoweld-alt.pcb
ghid_load_menus():  should process Mouse section here

(pcb:18658): Gtk-WARNING **: Invalid input string
unknown action `EditLayerGroups'
unknown action `EditLayerGroups'

Not sure what that means, but the 'Edit Layer Groups' option in the View
menu doesn't seem to do anything (other than spew the warning to
stderr).

Flipping the view to solder side is broken: I can flip via the View menu
(more zooms and view changes), but not with keyboard shortcuts.
Pressing Tab makes pcb whine about "ksym 65289 (0xff09) has not been
defined", and shift-Tab is the same, except with 65056 (0xfe20).  And
enabling both flips at the same time is totally borked - I have
arbitrary-angle silkscreen lines across my layout.

I also had a segfault while zooming (*) but I can't reproduce it.

(*) On a layout that gets messed up when I drag the end of two lines,
but HEAD fubars it too.

$ rpm -q gtk+
gtk+-2.8.3-0

Yes, 'C' works, it centers the board to the current point, but it seems
to warp the cursor to a place that is neither the old or new position of
the desired center.
