Please add Rename to Layer in main menu so that a shortcut can be assigned

What problem do you see this solving?

To make renaming a number of Layers more practical and efficient.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

Every image I edit has a number of layers

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

Currently to rename a layer you can only right-click on it or click on the layer title which means you are continually moving back and forth between keyboard and mouse which is not very practical or efficient, especially if you have many layers. Everything else required to rename a list of layers can be done from the keyboard, such as moving up and down, copy/paste, etc.

    You can shortcut (AFAIK) everything else related to layers and since the viewer toolbar shows which layer you are standing on, you can be working in fullscreen mode and still see your shortcut navigation between layers. Now, since you can not rename the layers by shortcut you need to exit fullscreen or navigate to layers panel to rename. This ruins the workflow.
