Oh hells yes! hotkeyed and everything! : hit the forward slash.
Thanks for pointing that out, Alexandre!

One small tweak: can the search pop up under the mouse cursor?
If one is using focus-follows-mouse in their wm (like I do), it's a
mad rush to mouse over the search box before it vanishes.

Maybe it could pop-up attached to the status bar so window-focusing is
not an issue?

Regardless, this is so cool. My girlfriend is going to love that
feature. Maybe as much as I do!
Thanks again everyone!

Re: [Gimp-developer] Plans to resolve hotkey conflicts?

Hi,

Ok so it seems you are talking of something different from what
Alexandre linked. This commit was about duplicate shortcuts. You are
talking about what GTK+ calls "mnemonics", which is this underlined
character on menu items or buttons. This commit did indeed nothing
related to mnemonics.

I don't really know what is the deal with mnemonics because that's a
real mess by design. Indeed having duplicated mnemonics is hard to
check since a same action can be used in various contexts (different
menus, dialogs…). In one case, it may be fine, but in others, it
won't.

I think I read someone saying that maybe GTK+ would be getting away
from mnemonics in the long run but I can't find any actual reference
to this (apart from the fact that it is not possible to see them by
default in GTK+3 apparently, without pressing Alt). So I don't know.

> s - Hue/Saturation, Colourise

That's another case which shows the problem with mnemonics: by
default, the label is "Colori_ze" (with a mnemonic on 'z'), but the
translator changed it to 's' (obviously you are using UK English). So
there is no conflicts in US English, but there is one in UK English.
This is too much of a burden on translators to be able to change
mnemonics (so should they be expected to check every place where they
are used, as well as developers?).

Anyway I don't really have good answers for you. You can try and open
bug reports for the conflicts you find and we'll try to fix them. But
we likely won't be 100% sure that we won't create new mnemonics
conflicts somewhere else by fixing them in this specific menu. And the
ones on translated strings will be even more annoying. Maybe we should
ask translators to not change mnemonics even when the translation does
not have the letter? (they would add a "(z)" at the end of the string.
That's what they do in languages with indirect input like Japanese,
though it could feel like a stepback for a lang such as UK English)
