I'll get Alt+F2 in there in the next rev.  Thanks.

With regards to where HUD should go.  Yea...I struggled with this one,
too.  It has the same type of capability as the Dash (users enter search
string, suggestions appear), but the HUD is MUCH more global in reach than
just the desktop and it applies to applications...not the desktop
environment, which supports your comment about it going into another
section of its own.

Do you think it would be better to include the description of the HUD
feature in the 'help' section at the end of Chapter two?  Seems this might
be a better place.  Also, it could be included in the applications section
in another chapter.

Thoughts?
