Add keyboard shortcut for changing block type

[designsimply]

I see that we have a few keyboard shortcuts for some things already, such as Bold, Italic, Strikethrough, and Link (ref). May we also have a keyboard shortcut for changing a block type?

@designsimply Aren't there multiple possible block types?

How would a keyboard shortcut work in this case?

Yes, the keyboard flow should be just to open the transform panel.

Apologies, how do you use the keyboard to open a transform panel?

Note: it's possible I misunderstood and you are closing this as wontfix. That's fine! Just confirming. 🙂
