If you're an Emacs user, you may want to give Emacs IPython Notebook [1] a try. I suspect that it would solve the keyboard shortcuts issue.

Note that we also intend to at least expose Emacs/vim keybindings for the text area as soon as possible. It's not hard as codemirror has most of the bits we need, we just haven't had the time for it.
