That's what I do. Here is part of my frontscript:
on tabKey
if controlkey() = "down" then
if the tool = "pointer tool"
then choose browse tool
else choose pointer tool
else pass tabKey
end tabKey
This lets me control-tab to change tools. I never could get used to the
Cmd-9/0 thing because it requires the wrong hand.
