Add a search bar in keyboard shortcut setting window?

As the number of keyboard shortcuts increase, it's getting harder to find one quickly.

Is that possible to add a search bar in the keyboard shortcut setting window, so we can search for a functionality by its name?

Say, when I type "page", it will list all shortcuts whose names contain "page".

Thanks. But this plugin seems to show only the hotkeys for calibre main window, rather than the calibre viewer.

Do you know how to list all hotkeys for calibre Viewer?

'Fraid not, I don't make much use of the viewer.

You could ask DaltonST if he could add the shortcuts for the Editor and Viewer to his list option in JobSpy.

Added: If you show the viewer toolbar (Shift+F11) the button tooltips show the shortcut keys

That's a good idea. I'll contact DaltonST to see if he can make some changes.

Unfortunately, DaltonST hasn't been on for a while. I reported a bug in one of his plugins a month ago and it usually would've been fixed by now. I hope he is ok.
