The Escape key is, as usual, a shortcut for clicking on Cancel. But there is not shortcut, to my knowledge, equivalent to clicking on Don't Save. Quite inconvenient to have to use the mouse just for that.

In the source, I've just added Cmd-D for the Don't Save button; there may be a few other dialogs that could benefit from similar treatment, so feel free to make suggestions. (I also added a shortcut in the Revert dialog, though I don't suppose that's used nearly so often.)

which can be linked to a shortcut.
