Keyboard Shortcut to Copy Entity Identifier #761

@AerunDev

Description

@AerunDev

As an User
I want to copy an entity identifier using a keyboard shortcut
so that I can perform the action without relying exclusively on precise mouse interactions

The current copy action is only available through a small mouse-hover button. Providing a keyboard shortcut improves both accessibility and efficiency for all users.

Acceptance Criteria

  • A keyboard shortcut allows copying the currently selected entity identifier (Warning: CTRL + C may be in conflict with the OS Copy / Paste workflow)
  • The shortcut is documented through the UI (in the copy tooltip for example, later in the Shortcut UI)
  • The behavior is consistent across all database pages exposing a copy identifier action
  • The copied value is identical to the one produced by the existing copy button
  • Existing mouse interactions continue to work unchanged
  • Notifications are displayed to tell that copy has been performed

Identified and Relevant Use Cases

Relevant

  • Users with motor impairments or hand tremors.
  • Power users preferring keyboard workflows.
  • Situations where precise mouse movement is difficult.

Not Prioritized / Out of Scope

  • Fully keyboard-navigable database pages.
  • User-configurable shortcuts.
  • Global accessibility settings.
