Add Search & Regex Filter to Keyboard Shortcuts Panel

Hi Trados Studio Team,

Currently, the Keyboard Shortcuts panel lists hundreds of actions in a single scrollable table with no way to filter or search. Finding a specific command to customize requires manually scanning through a very long list — which is time-consuming and frustrating, especially for power users managing complex workflows.

Proposed Feature: Please add a search bar at the top of the Keyboard Shortcuts panel that allows users to:

  1. Type any keyword to instantly filter the action list in real time
  2. Toggle Regex mode for pattern-based searching (e.g., ^Add.*TM to find all TM-related Add actions)
  3. Optionally filter by scope (Editor, Project, Global) via a dropdown alongside the search bar

This is a small UI addition with a massive productivity impact, especially for professional translators and project managers who rely on custom shortcuts daily.

Thank you for considering this!
