Shortcut keys? Or a context-menu option for open, show, etc. attachments?

The new "show file" button requires a bit of hunting and pecking: ie., need to click to select the item, then go click the arrow in the tool bar and select from a dropdown menu. I wonder if it is possible to have some sort of shortcut key sequences to do things like show an attachment in an external viewer or show the file in its location in the file structure.
Alternatively, perhaps it would be possible to add those four options to a right-click context menu? That is, right click on an attached item or link in order to view, open, show, or do library lookup?
  • They're being added to the content menu for 2.1 Final.

    There will likely be shortcut keys as well, but probably not for 2.1.
  • A related request / inquiry:

    When entering a list of authors in "Info", it would be great to have some sort of shortcut key for adding another author or creator. When I'm entering authors' names from a long list, I use "tab" to move from Last to First, and find myself wanting a shortcut key to automatically create a new entry and place my cursor in the "Last" box. Perhaps "Control" + "+" or something like that?
  • shift+enter
  • Thanks! This didn't come up in a search I did for keyboard shortcuts. I don't actually find a list of keyboard shortcuts -- is there one? There's info on how to change the default keyboard shortcuts here: http://www.zotero.org/support/preferences/shortcut_keys
  • it's on the list here:

    I think technically it doesn't qualify as a keyboard shortcut - it's more like the equivalent of pressing + to expand attachments or pressing tab to go to the next field, that's why it's not on the list of shortcuts. (also, as opposed to the actual shortcuts, you can't redefine it within Zotero).
