Feature #989
Add keyboard shortcut for "Add Folder" in QT UI
100%
Description
Hello! The QT UI has a keyboard shortcut for "Add Files," just like the GTK UI did, but GTK's "Add Files" was able to add directories as well, which was overwhelmingly what I'd use it for. The "Add Folders" menu item in the QT UI doesn't have a shortcut, though, and I'd enjoy having one.
I suppose I'd suggest Ctrl+Shift+F for it, which seems unused currently. I'll attach the patch I'm using to do so on my system, at the moment.
Thx!

Updated by I'm hesitating about Ctrl+Shift+F, mainly because of the connection with Ctrl+F = Find.
The existing shortcuts are:
Ctrl[+Shift]+O = Open[Add] Files
Ctrl[+Shift]+L = Open[Add] URL
To continue with that pattern, what about:
Ctrl[+Shift]+K = Open[Add] Folder
I realize "K" isn't intuitively associated with "Folder", but it's currently unused and near O+L in the QWERTY layout.

Updated by Oh, for sure! I'd meant to mention that I didn't actually care what the shortcut was. I'm perfectly happy with Ctrl+Shift+K. :)
