Publish: Keyboard shortcuts for the "Upload changes" dialog

Use case or problem

I publish using Obsidian Publish many times per day. I would like to be able to complete the entire flow using just my keyboard.

Right now I have setup a Hotkey to open the “Upload changes” dialog. But from there, I can’t use the keyboard.

Proposed solution

When the “Upload changes” dialog is open, the shortcuts I most want are:

  1. Press enter to upload
  2. Press enter to close the dialog

I very rarely change the default upload settings, because I make heavy use of the publish: true YAML setting. I guess some users might wish they could select notes using arrow keys etc.

Current workaround (optional)

I use the mouse.

To speed up the publish flow even more, it would be great if:

  1. The “Upload changes” dialog moved to the bottom right of screen once I press “Upload”, such that I can continue writing while the notes upload.
  2. The “Upload changes” dialog automatically hides itself after 5-10 seconds if the upload completes successfully.
