I like this idea. And maybe add an option in the settings like 'Show structure 
in outline' that will show the 'cross' in front of the title in order to open 
it. 'void QListView::setRootIsDecorated ( bool )' comes to my mind...

What I dislike with F5 is, that F2 to F12 all insert an object... only F5 
would do something different. Not very consistent... someone has an usability 
guy at hand to ask?

Yup, this one is even better! :-)
And the shortcut could be CTRL+"what ever we use for 'start-slideshow'".
