Use keyboard shortcuts in Properties

Use case or problem

I often use Ctrl + R to create a link in my notes or to turn existing words into links, and this is my default link creation method. Also, since I use the breadcrumbs plugin frequently, I use a lot of links in the “up” and “down” sections of the properties of my files. For example, my Antibiotics.md note has [[Medicine]] in the “up” properties. But I can’t use the Ctrl + R shortcut in the file properties panel. I have to manually type the [[ and ]] signs from the keyboard every time I create a link.

Proposed solution

Allow me to use keyboard shortcuts when typing in the file properties panel as if I were typing on a note

Current workaround (optional)

Putting markers manually. Not extremely tedious or something but hotkeys are definitely better.
