Making keybinding work again in GNOME43+

[paloha]

Dear @Stunkymonkey, thanks for developing & maintaining this extension, I find it very useful.
After I installed it on Ubuntu 24.04.01 (Wayland) GNOME 46, I realized the keybinding does not work.

You already reacted to this issue in 2022 and 2024 here, clarifying it does not work since GNOME 43 due to some dropped support for keybindings : #204, #68.

But I could not live without the keyboard shortcut, so I developed my own small extension to support this. It uses python3-nautilus just as your extension, and I made it work with Alt+t to open a new Guake tab in current directory.

My solution is only specific to my needs, but I thought it could be easy for you to integrate it into your extension to make the keybindings work again.

My answer to this question on AskUbuntu is relevant to this topic.

thanks @paloha for the snippet.

I am surprised about the used MenuProvider. But yes, why not...

Why have I not thought about this... Looks quiet doable.

Thank you very much. I will look into it.

I am glad I could help. I'd make a PR but I think you'll be much more efficient given you know the code already.
Thanks again for this project.
