I prefer keyboards over mouse whenever possible. And here is one thing that is annoying when using gwenview with keyboard only. When I start gwenview, there are some recent folders listed and that is fine. But when I want to use arrow keys to navigate and enter into some folder, I find I just can't do it. It turns out that the top tabbar containing "Recent Folders" and "Recent URLS" is having the keyboard focus, so pressing up/down arrow does make any change and pressing left/right arrows just switch between those two tabs. The workaround is pressing "Tab" once to move the keyboard focus to those recent folders, then I can use arrow keys as expected. But that is just unnatural and extra work, which I often just forget. So please, when gwenview start : * make the area containing those recent folders have keyboard focus by default * automatically select and highlight the first item in those recent folders. Reproducible: Always
