Description

Users would like to add a shortcut CTRL+A to select all blocks in a page

From Reddit

As someone who's trying to move from Notion to Appflowy, there are 2 shortcuts I use extensively in Notion and that saves me a lot of time. They are the following:

CTRL+A selects the current block, instead of selecting everything in the page. In Appflowy, I have to manually select the block's content.

I can easily change the block type by using CTRL+/ shortcut. In Appflowy, I have to manually hover over the ::: control icon and select "Turn Into" option to do that.

Another shortcut request has been recorded here: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/8013

Impact

Improves the user experience by reducing the number of steps required to select everything in page
