With the aim of reducing mouse activity i was wondering if there was such a command shortcut (eg CLS or Ctrl+L) to provide the SQL*Plus (?) "CLEAR SCREEN" command functionality found by clicking the rubber-on-end-of-pencil icon in Oracle SQL Developer to clear the lower "Results" sub-tab (...incorrect terminology i'm sure).

CTRL+D? http://www.scribd.com/doc/7580088/SQL-Developer-Hot-Keys

If that doesn't work, you might be able to set up an Accelerator: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b31695/intro.htm#sthref208

A: 

If you're using sqlplus in a shell, like bash you can run the shell's clear command from sqlplus:

SQL> host clear

you can abbreviate of course:

SQL> ho clear
