Request
- When the browser extension is open and showing the matching site vault entries, allow to navigate them using the up- and down-arrow keys.
Benefit / why?
- This would allow easy keyboard-only selection when a domain or site has multiple entries.
How does this work in practice?
Assume your site/domain has a few matching vault entries, e.g. 9 or so (not uncommon for internal domains, or different accounts for testing in development, …)
- The user goes to the login page of the site
- The user presses existing shortcut
CTRL-Y.
This opens (and expands) the Bitwarden browser extension, showing all matching entries. The cursor is by default in the search field - (optional) The user types something in the search field to filter the displayed entries.
- The user presses
down-arrowa number of times to go to the matching entry
→ this step is the actual requested feature to add - The user presses
Enterto select and auto-fill the login fields on the website.
What’s the current alternative?
Press CTRL+L an unpredictable number of times, untill the entry you’re looking for shows up.
or
Press CTRL-Y to open extension, and press TAB many, many times to go to the relevent entry.
Releated feature requests?
- Add essential keyboard shortcuts & navigation → but the scope here is much wider. My request only is about adding up/down arrow key support.
