Stuff like this is why I never learned to use modifier-tab in the first place. I've always been happy to use the slightly more expensive menu/palette selection idiom, since I can reliably communicate intent to the device without situational thinking. There really is a a degree of wasted effort in trying to make computers "read our minds." Trying too hard to make the common case easy can make even the 2nd common case too expensive to justify the savings.
