I’ve heard Dvorak users complain the regular shortcuts are geared up for QWERTY. I’ve also heard that Dvorak isn’t any faster. All anecdotal of course.
The most common shortcuts do tend to be on the left side of a Qwerty, but in a Windows environment at least, almost every letter key is bound to a common shortcut. As an avid shortcut user, the only letters for which I can't remember a hotkey is Y, and M if you don't use Win+M.
Programs like AutoHotkey can solve that issue when available.
Depending on the system, you can create layouts where ctrl/alt give you temporary qwerty layout and revert as soon as you let go. That would solve most shortcut issues.
