Dimension Pallet - Shortcut Key

I know there are many people who find this very annoying, including myself at times, but is helpful when you need it.  Actually, the same goes for the 4-quadrant cursor for dimension placement.  I myself would like to be able to turn these off, but assign them to a shortcut key if I want them to pop up which you can't currently do.  Does anyone else think this would make that functionality more useful and less obtrusive?
