Research direction
Start by reading how the View menu's “Show Texts” and “Show Unresolved References” actions are defined and how the GUI's existing buttons are added. Compare their behavior with the issue's request, then check what keyboard shortcuts other tools use; done means both functions have easily accessible GUI buttons and the shortcut question has a clear resolution.

Description
Navigating layout's, I'm often using the View->Show Texts and View->Show Unresolved References menu items.
Since there is a lot of "space" next to the default buttons in the gui, it would be nice if these display functions could get easily accessible buttons in the gui.
By default there are no keys assigned to this functionality.
What do "other tools" use as keyboard shortcuts for this functionality ?
