[feature request] shortcut for changing item quantity

[tryhardedgelord]

it's in the title. its pretty annoying having to click through the menus when adding things like lots of ammo or drones into your fit, making it so you can assign "change item quantity" to a hotkey wouldnt take lots of time to implement but would save tons of time for people that spend more time in pyfa than actually playing the game

@tryhardedgelord You talking about a shortcut that opens this window?

What would you recommend? We could do something like alt+double click opens that window. We use AALT modifier for other shortcuts, we would have to verify that something like that makes sense in conjunction with the other modifiers (don't want to throw in a new shortcut that doesn't make sense with other shortcuts in the platform)

if i were to do it for myself it'd be f2 cuz its the windows hotkey for renaming things and i think that correlation lowkey makes sense other than that idk, anything works i guess, as long as you can reach it with little effort (no 3 key combinations(?))

I'll keep this open for now, but don't have time to work on it. If someone else wishes to pick it up, that would be great. IIRC, the function keys are severely underutilized in pyfa, so there might be an opportunity to start assigning some common context menus with those. However, global shortcut handlers are pretty finicky to work on, and we would want to remain consistent across the board with shortcuts that are similar to one another.
