Maybe everyone else knows this and I'm just late to the party, but when using function keys (F5 - F10) to select tools, the Smart tool toggles between it and the last tool you selected. For example, if you type F5 for the Smart tool, then F7 for the Move tool, now F5 will toggle between the Smart tool and the Move tool. 

Didn't know. Always something new to find.

Didn't even know the 'F' keys selected tools at all! Way beyond cool! Keystrokes over mouse clicks any day! Thanks for the tip Craig!

I have done this (almost instinctively by now) , since I figured it out in X3. It does speed up things

Yes, that's a very handy feature. Another one is that you can press and hold a function key to temporarily use a different tool. Then when you let go of the key, SONAR automatically switches back to the previous tool you were using.
