Summary0010091: Keyboard Shortcuts Dialog - Automatically expand categories when contain search results
DescriptionI am little confused because sometimes I think I have observed this happening and sometimes not, but I might be wrong.

The `Keyboard Shortcuts` dialog appears to remember the expand/collapse states of its categories, which is nice.
However, I am suggesting that when a Search is done, that the results automatically expand the categories that contain the results.
User already has to navigate through the top tabs to see what actions are available, can be a little inconvenient to also have to expand/collapse categories manually as well to see search results.

The tricky part about this suggestion would probably be about remembering the collapse/expands states of each category, AFTER the Search field keyword is cleared.
Meaning once the field is cleared, category would ideally go back to its previous expand/collapse state it had before the search results expanded them.

I think this could be helpful for users if it was available.
Thank you to anyone who reads this and anyone who considers adding this.
