Use case or problem
I switch between vaults constantly, but I have to use the mouse to do so because even though there is a shortcut to “Open another vault”, that dialog doesn’t support keyboard navigation.
Related issue: pressing Esc doesn’t close the vault.
Everything else I commonly do in Obsidian can be done exclusively with the keyboard so I feel this friction regularly.
Proposed solution
- When the “Open another vault” dialog opens and the list of vaults contains vaults other than the current vault, make the alphabetically first vault that isn’t the current vault be “focused” so that pressing “Enter” opens it.
- Let me choose a different vault with up/down arrows.
- Make the Esc key close the dialog.
