Just a small wish, not of high importance.
Is it possible to add shortcuts in front of the entries of the directory history popup, for easier navigation. It can run from 1 to 9 then a-z, or whatever scheme suits the best. It can enable direct going on the entry from the keyboard.
Shortcuts for entries in directiry history

If you add ampersand before some character of item name, this character will be underscored as in usual menu and will be used as shortcut character.
E.g. give following names to items:
Usually I use first and last ways (for the divider \t I use tab character copied from Notepad - in this case part of name after tab will be shown in right part of menu after tabulator - as hotkeys like Alt+F5 in main TC menu).
In order to see underscores you need to disable hiding of such marks in your OS (usually it is enabled by default).
E.g. give following names to items:
Result will be the following:&Temp Folder
&1 Documents
Pictures\t&2
And shortcut keys will be T, 1, 2.Temp Folder
1 Documents
Pictures 2

Even if it was feasible to rename directories just for the directory history, it does not work that way, ampersands are kept.add ampersand before some character of item name

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.
Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood topic a bit, my post was about dir hotlist and not about dir history list.Hacker wrote:Even if it was feasible to rename directories just for the directory history, it does not work that way, ampersands are kept.

But I think that for history dirlist it will be easy to show shortcut column (as for Alt+F5 in File menu e.g.) and to fill it with letters/numbers in some order. Even more, I think it will be great to have localized string with character order for this task - e.g. for English it may be alphabetic string or something like "1234567890qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm".

Opera's bookmarks do repeating alphanumeric
Somesite 1
Somesite 2
Somesite 3
Somesite 4
Somesite 5
Somesite 6
Somesite 7
Somesite 8 :: not sure if it would go to S or 8 in this case.
For the closed page list (TrashCan)
It does, 1 thru to 0 for the first 10 closed tabs, and then starts the repeating AlphaNumeric: which uses the least used letter/number as far as I know.
