OK, the Technical support FAQ page said to post questions here in the forum. So I do.
I am not entirely sure all reported here problems are the same, but I'll risk it (to avoid watering down the subject throughout the forum).

Short description:
The app crashes when a style (paragraph OR character) that has a hotkey assigned is visible in Test Styles view.
Details about reproduction:
- If the Text Styles view is closed and you create new style that has a hotkey from the Paragraph view, Character view or the Text menu - no problem. When you open Text Styles view, such that the style in question is visible - melt down.
- If you have a style with a hotkey and your Text Styles view is open, but too short to display the whole styles list and the style in question is not displayed - no problem. As soon as you scroll your style into view - melt down.
The app does not crash - it just becomes unresponsive and starts gulpind down more and more memory and I have to kill the process at some point.

I can go around the issue for now. I was ready to buy the Publisher (and still am), but I need to know that the resolution of this issue is in sight. I can work around it, but it is very hard and frustrating - styles hotkeys are not a feature to easily work without.
This topic has last been updated in January 2020, the last QA response is another month before that. This is a bit disconcerting as overall the application seems to be worth the cost.
