That’s why ribbon search would have helped a lot. Plus if fast enough people could use a shortcut to get to search and then quickly type a few characters to a function e.g. Meta S -> “pa” for paste, much faster than finding a tiny button and easier to remember than a combination of keys. Like the Jump feature in Winamp. If you forget the small subset of characters that give you what you want you can use the longer names. The results list would contain the key combos if you wanted to use that next time instead. While searching the Ribbon UI could show you which tab and button refers the currently selected search result item. It was really needed to bring it all together. And for power uses why not have customizable tool strips....
