[Feature Request] Delete entries with delete and backspace key
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Deleting entries in the list view involves a lot mouse and click actions.
Describe the solution you'd like
Deleting entries with the delete and backspace key would be a great time-saver. This feature request is kind of related to #1900.
Deleting entries with a delete key can lead to unexpected effects, because deletion is kind of hard to revert in KeeWeb. Not sure how it should be properly implemented for now.
Yes, totally got it.
- However we could show a warning before moving entries to the trash.
- Additionally the default button state for the warning dialog should be set No.
Users have to explicitly select Yes in order to move entries to the trash. This will prevent bulk deletion. I have created a quick mockup.
Maybe if the deletion is done with the delete / backspace key, then we can show the dialog, you're right.
I'm not sure why the default state should be set to No though. If someone pressed Delete and then Enter, they for sure had an intention to delete the record.
@antelle Good point. It could be an additional protection when someone presses too many times the Delete/Backspace key.
Going one step further: The same default state could be useful when you empty the trash. So you have to actively confirm deletion. On the other side it could be annoying too.
However we could show a warning before moving entries to the trash Is a warning really needed ?
Because the trash is here to prevent unexpected deletions
Anyway, I'd love to see such feature !!
