Black lines is behavior that remains the same. Red lines indicate new or altered behavior.

LEFTCLICK on world to move character.
LEFTCLICK on hotbar button for default use. Unequipped armor is worn, unequipped tools are wielded, equipped tools activate cursor modes.
LEFTCLICK + LEFTCLICK on items to pick up and drop [selected] items. This can also be used to drop items in the hotbar.
LEFTCLICK + DRAG on items to pick up and drop [selected] items. This can also be used to drop items in the hotbar.
LEFTCLICK + DRAG on window moves the window.
LEFTCLICK + DRAG on abilities to pick up and drop abilities in the hotbar.
SHIFT + LEFTCLICK on [selected] items to transfer them between last two containers.

Nice. Just add a hotkey for last selected radial menu option, that repeats last action without opening the menu. Some kind of a right-click modifier would would work best, I think.
