Allow custom keyboard shortcuts for custom Actions (beyond the F1-F14 keys)
I work speedily. Shortcuts are my thing. The F1 keys are a hard reach for me on my keyboard and I usually need to use my eyes to be sure I'm selecting the right F key. Why not just let the user assign a custom keyboard shortcut for each custom action?

Well, this has obviously been ignored for the past 5 years. The limits on what we can do with the Keyboard Shortcuts means we have to resort to Actions, but it's silly that we can't assign any key to an action. Like many users, I spend as little time as possible using Illustrator (for obvious reasons) so would like to align its shortcuts to other superior apps I use more frequently - eg. Numpad-. in Blender is "locate object", but it's not possible to set a keyboard shortcut to this in the Keyboards Shortcuts settings, and it's not possible to assign anything other than a function key to it in an Action. A couple of annoying restrictions!

+1 . Makes no sense to limit to the F keys.
