On the second thought, how about putting the structure viewer into to current 
Outline tab ? Until we have a clear separation between content and layout, 
this could be a useful interim solution.

First step I'd take is removing help/grid from context-menu, let they be in 
main menu only (View). Same thing for header/footer since they're not that 
essential.

My concern at the moment is only Mouse/Select toolbutton. I don't see the 
point of having frame around the arrow. Simply the arrow should be enough, 
like in old KPresenter. 
I'll switch the icon to arrow-without-frame if nobody objects.

You mean Ctrl+F2 ? :-P
Personally I vote for F5 and "break" shortcut compatibility with KPresenter 
1.2. Comparing 'Insert Table' and 'Start Slideshow', I think the latter would 
win with respect to how often it will be used.

My another idea: make it as "Start from current slide" which will show/preview 
the current slide in full-screen and yet user can continue doing the 
slideshow. At the moment, the standard "Start" action will start the 
slideshow _always_ from the very first slide
