Problem
I'd like a keyboard shortcut to reach Search's existing browsing-data clearing controls.
On current main (491f321), ⌘Y opens History and Clear… reveals separate actions for history, cookies/sign-ins, and cache. There is no ⌘⇧Delete binding. This is based on reading the current code, rather than a runtime bug reproduction.
Proposed behavior
- ⌘⇧Delete (Command + Shift + the Mac's backward-delete key, ⌘⇧⌫) opens History with its existing Clear… controls already expanded.
- If History is already open, the shortcut reveals those controls in place.
- Opening the controls does not delete anything. The user still explicitly chooses Clear for history or cache, or Sign out of everything for cookies/sign-ins.
- Expose the same action in the History menu as Clear Browsing Data…, with the shortcut shown.
- ⌘Y continues to open the ordinary history view.
This would reuse the existing UI and clearing actions, keeping the change small and adding no dependencies.
Acceptance criteria
Scope and related work
Time-range selection and new deletion behavior can be separate proposals. This request is only for reaching the existing controls from the keyboard.
Relevant code: HistoryPanel and its clearing controls, History menu.
Related: #36 adds configurable shortcuts. This command should remain compatible with that work.
I'd like to contribute a small PR for this if the direction fits.
