## Overview

Nautilus, Thunar, and other file managers allow assigning keyboard shortcuts to user-generated actions / scripts. I think it would make sense for Dolphin to implement a similar feature set. The ability to assign key bindings to service menus would greatly enhance the extensibility and keyboard-driven usability of Dolphin.

## Implementation ideas 

Ideally a user would be able to assign a custom key binding through Dolphin's existing key assignment menu. But a simpler implementation could also just rely on a keyboard shortcut key-value pair in the service menu .desktop file that users could manually edit.

Thank you for giving this suggestion your consideration. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like me to elaborate on any details.
