Well, I tend to say, that keybord shortcuts are only used by "power users", not 
by "normal" editors.

At least I think the close button should be sperated from the save buttons, as 
Jens suggested. So I'm fine with the close button on the very left (which 
reminds me of Mac Windows, which have the close/minimize/maximize stuff on the left.
