Bug: Can't enter edit mode on path bar using the keyboard

[Hefaistos68]

Description

Its seems not possible to enter edit mode in the navigation bar when using only keyboard. Since the focus jumps to a bread crump and from there between other crumps and other controls, there is no way to actually edit the location.
I expected F2 to work, or having a stop at an extra edit field after the crumps, but nope. nothing of the likes.

To be fair, explorer doesnt seem to offer this either, but at least in explorer i can select folders from the bread crumps.

Steps To Reproduce

Use the tab key to jump between the controls in the app until you reach the navigation bar and the bread crumps.

Expected behavior

Some way to edit the location in the navigation bar with keyboard only.

To enter edit mode "using keyboard" you can use Ctrl+L or Ald+D. But it is an accessibility issue.

Damn it, didnt know about the Ctrl+L and Alt+D, works just fine with these shortcuts.

Np, same shortcuts work in explorer and web browsers too. Still I think all controls should be reachable by Tabbing (is that right?)

@gave92 yes, I'm not quite sure how we can handle this scenario but it's something to look into.

While at it, check why the bread crumps dont open with key down.

@Hefaistos68 can you open a feature request for that?

Is there an accepted shortcut we can assign to this? (F2, Esc etc.) I can do the pull request for this if we decide on that.
