webqueue2 is currently partially keyboard navigable however it still requires a great deal of mouse clicks to properly interact with the interface. More effort is needed to make keyboard navigation better. Some categories to focus on are:

  • Global Shortcuts: keybinding that can trigger and action or focus an element from anywhere. Example: Ctrl / Cmd + W for activating the QueueSelector from anywhere.
  • Contextual Interactions: keybindings that depend on the active element(s) and allow for interaction depending on scope. Example: Esc should close the QueueSelector when it is active. The same key should also close the ItemView if it is open and QueueSelector is not selected.
  • Keyboard Selection: keys that allow for movement across a page. Example: Combinations of Tab and arrow keys ↑↓←→ allow for navigation of the ItemTable.

The Chrome extension Vimium was mentioned as a useful extension that somewhat provides this functionality.

Removing milestone for now. Going to what webqueue2 doesn't do.
