Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

When navigating to a different saved request, if existing request is modified, a popup appears asking to Save or Don't Save the changed request. two keyboard shortcut attached to Save and Don't save button would help reduce mouse usage.

Why should this be worked on?

Since its an webapp, mouse usage is high. Adding these shortcuts will help reduce mouse usage and increase workflow speed.

Hi @nezam05,
Fyi, whenever the "Save request" modal opens up, you can Dismiss the modal by pressing escape key [ ESC ] and confirm Save by pressing return key [ ⏎ ].
