Ctrl+Enter for Apply filter

Would it be possible to add Ctrl+Enter as a shortcut to Apply filter when writing filters in the Data tab? It's a small thing, but being able to quickly type your filter and apply it would save me having to move my arm away from the keyboard every time.

Would also be good if the focus stayed in the filter field in case you need to do more adjustments to the filters after seeing the result.

There is already a shortcut for that: F9.

Also, you can customize that shortcut in Tools > Preferences > Shortcuts > Data > "Apply filter"

Ah! Fantastic.

Where would I have found that shortcut though? There's no tooltip on the button or items in the menus for it. I guess it's the same as Run (F9)? But that button is grayed out in the Data tab. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm changing my request for a Ctrl+Enter feature for better discoverability of that shortcut :P

You can find that shortcut in the rightclick-menu of the filter area.
