Controlling a specific button with the keyboard is not implemented in skins.

That said, all keys offered at the vlc core level are intrinsically supported. For instance, the space bar does pause the video.

In the current release, key accelerators pertaining to popup menus are not implemented though, because they are part of the Qt subsystem and not the vlc core. Those are all the keys in the form of Ctrl-something. In a future release (vlc3.0 branch), these missing keys will also be supported. (nightly build available)
