The motivation for Cmd+R (and R, due to some browsers not supporting Cmd+R overrides) was to use same shortcut as in Sublime Text, which I'm used to. However, ST is an editor, so it requires the use of a modifier such as Cmd. Being a read-only code view, gotools.org can afford to skip the modifier. After godoc.org has chosen to to use F shortcut, I've added it to gotools.org to stay consistent. Since then, I've started to use and rely on F shortcut most of the time, and find it more natural. Remove Cmd+R and R shortcuts now that we can do it for gotools.org only. That way, there's only one canonical way of accessing the select list view dropdown and jumping to an identifier, and it's the same as on godoc.org. This further increases the priority of #15.

Pressing "?" on your keyboard should bring up an overlay that lists all available keyboard shortcuts. Many good websites do this (e.g., try it on github.com) and it's good to be consistent.
It might also be a good idea to have an icon/text with help/info that also brings up this overlay.
