Bug ID: 520114
Summary: [UI/UX] Implement real-time filtering and keyboard
navigation for Recent Connections
Classification: Applications
Product: krdc
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: RDP

Target Milestone: ---
## Enhance the address bar to filter the "Recent Connections" list as the user
types and allow selecting an entry using the arrow keys and Enter.
## Description:
To improve workflow efficiency, I propose a more interactive behavior for the
host input field/address bar in KRDC.
## Current behaviour:
Live Filtering: As the user types a hostname or IP in the address field,
the "Recent Connections" list is automatically filtered to show only matching
entries. Pressing <Enter> starts a new connection ignoring the recent
connectios
## Proposed Changes:
### Add Keyboard Navigation:
1. Pressing the Down Arrow key while the input field is focused should move the
focus/highlight into the filtered list of recent connections.
2. Pressing Enter while a connection is highlighted in the list should
immediately initiate that connection.
## Use Case:
Currently, even if a host is in the recent history, the user often has to
either type the full address or use the mouse to select it from the list. This
change would allow a "keyboard-centric" workflow where a few keystrokes + Down
Arrow + Enter are enough to reconnect to a frequent server, which is much
faster for power users and sysadmins.
