Screenshot highlighting the missing keyboard shortcuts compared to older Plasma
SUMMARY
Attached screenshot to highlight the regression, comparing to older Plasma5
versions.
Window Operations Menu is missing keyboard shortcuts for moving windows to
specific virtual desktops.
During the re-design of the menu from radio-buttons to checkboxes & "move to"
buttons, the keyboard shortcuts for "Move to Virtual Desktop N" were removed.
Looks like it was not intentional.
This regression breaks keyboard-centric workflows.
This was previously discussed at
https://discuss.kde.org/t/move-to-desktop-context-menu-shortcut/1489/8 , but
the discussion missed the key point that the _keyboard_ shortcuts are now
missing. The new way of having separate checkboxes and "move to" buttons is
good, but the lack of keyboard shortcuts is bad.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Alt-3 to open Window Operations Menu
2. Press D to open Desktops sub-menu
3. Press 4 to move window to Virtual Desktop number 4
OBSERVED RESULT
Window is not moved. Window Operations Menu stays open.
EXPECTED RESULT
Window is moved to Virtual Desktop 4 and disappears from current view
