Description

We added a setting to skip opening the "Rename"-dialog when creating a new page, with this setting we now create "Untitled" pages.

I love to use my keyboard when possible, so I don't have to move my hand to my mouse to perform a lot of actions, thus having the ability to eg. rename an active page by a hotkey CTRL + F2.

When the hotkey is activated, the focus should be transferred to the current navigation view item and should be editable, and saved by losing focus or hitting enter. If Escape is pressed, it should abort action.

Focus should go back to the editor, and the last selection should be honored.

Impact

Better UX for keyboard hackers
