Hotkeys to invoke browsers no longer present in v4?

I am no longer able to use keyboard shortcuts to select browsers when the picker appears.

It's not relevant in v4 as browsers are displayed as a tree. I also couldn't imagine a use case for this, because normally link is clicked with a mouse, so your hand is already on the mouse button, so it's faster to click again.

Hiya @aloneguid, thanks for your work on bt!

I have some mobility problems these days so I'm using my keyboard primarily. The bt proxy browser gets invoked normally when I activate a link with Enter elsewhere in Windows, so my hands aren't already on the mouse in this case.

For me, being able to stay in keyboard-mode is an accessibility preference, but it's not a deal-braker if keyboard support does not return to the new bt picker window. I understand that FOSS projects cannot cater to everyone and that's ok 😸

Another bit of nuance here is that while the tree-mode is very neat, I don't actually use that since I have bt setup with 3x custom browsers directly, and have all other auto-detected browsers + profiles hidden.

I have attached a screenshot of what my picker window looks like. Given that this appears so similar to the 3.x version of bt, I think this is why I was thrown off by keyboard shortcuts no longer working.

This is already coming in v4.1.1, and this is the way it's implemented - https://aloneguid.github.io/bt/picker.html#keyboard-navigation. Let me know your thoughts.

Should be available now.
