Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Originally created by @kristopolous on GitHub (Jan 10, 2018).
In the most recent wave of popularity there were at least 5 independent requests for keyboard navigation.
The window manager and browser captures lots of traditional key combinations and ignoring that fact is a problem.
A potential solution is a full modal design where the meta keys can set a mode so instead of alt+f it's alt, then f.
This solves the problem but in a really stupid way. There may be tricks to completely capture all keyboard input temporarily but that sounds really irritating for the user.
So this should exist somehow but not be trash.

There's also the tmux/screen/vim modal paradigm, but there's a learning curve there.
Also on modem (last 25 years or so) keyboards, any key can really act as a quasi mode, so long as you don't have too many at once; but that too is a bizarre interface.

oh wow... keyboard navigation would be really cool! =)

Right now there's zero js from me at least in the newer version. I'm saving that until the end, sometime in the next week or two

Sounds cool to me!

there's this rule that very few people follow https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/tabindex ... I can imagine that keyboard navigation is a generally solved problem as a plugin
