[Bf-funboard] Consistency in the snap menus

Hello!

One thing I recently came across is that the Snap Menus(Shift-S) don't align very well. The really great time saver feature of Blender's numbered menus is something I use a lot for the more common tasks (W 1, W 4, shift-S 3, Shift-S 2 etc.)

The problem starts when you use different snap menus.

3D-view:
1. Selection to Grid
2. Selection to Cursor
3. * Cursor to selected *
4. Cursor to center 
5. Cursor to grid
6. Cursor to Active

UV/Image Editor:
1. Selected to Pixels
2. Selected to Cursor
3. Selected to Adjacent Unselected
4. Cursor to Pixels
5. * Cursor to Selected *

UV/Image Editor (suggestion):

1. Selected to Pixels
2. Selected to Cursor
3. Cursor to Selected     
4. Selected to Adjacent Unselected
5. Cursor to Pixels


  While I can appreciate that Menus are arranged in logical order, I never use that order to find an item. I just memorize the number. 

  Wouldn't it be more consistent and easier to use if a matching entry had the same number?

Cheers
Pete
