Feature Proposal: Hot key folder control in Inventory

I'm proposing the addition of a hot-key for the inventory window. Browsing through large inventories, or searching for specific object names can leave a multitude of nested folders open. A simple hot-key such as alt-c, for example would collapse all the folders in the inventory list except for My Inventory and the parent folders underneath it, (Clothes, Objects, Animations... etc.)

Additionally, the hot-key could also clear out any search filter, to display all objects.

Currently, one must click on the "X" in the search dialog to clear the search filter, then File > Close all Folders > Click on "My Inventory to display only those parent folders under "My Invventory".

Ideas, suggestions, comments?

Sam

This could be useful. Having a hotkey to "close all open folders, then open this folder" for each of the folders I use a lot would speed up inventory browsing. Not sure how important this is though.

I'd like to have a menu on the inventory (or a hotkey or key combo, like control click) to open a folder in a new inventory window.
