SUMMARY In the present windows UI, there is currently no way (that I am aware of) to close a focused window using the keyboard. In order to close a window while in the Present Windows UI, the user must press the red close icon associated with the window they would like to close. I think it would be a usability improvement to be able to close windows using the configured "Close Window" keyboard shortcut. This would allow a user to be able to get a quick visual overview of the windows they have open on their desktop (or all desktops) and quickly be able to close unnecessary windows using a keyboard shortcut they are already familiar with. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open the present windows UI using the configured "Expose" or "ExposeAll" keyboard shortcut (or the hot corner). 2. Highlight a window. 3. Press the configured "Close Window" keyboard shortcut (Alt+f4 by default) OBSERVED RESULT The Close Window keyboard shortcut has no effect while the user is in the Present Windows UI. The user must use the mouse to close windows while in the Present Windows UI EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.16.9-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this awesome desktop environment!

Removing the old code doesn't make wishlist requests invalid for the new version (which has the same name, so they are the same thing from the user's perspective); re-opening.
