Please add a feature to the keyboard manager to map a single key to switch virtual desktops. It would be very handy for keyboard users to have a single key to switch the desktop. Ideally it would rotate through all the virtual desktops in use.

For example, hitting say 'Pause' on would switch the user from Desktop 2 back to 1 and another hit of pause would go back to Desktop 2.

Why? Currently Virtual Desktop requires you to 'remember' if you are on desktop 1 or 2 and hit the 'other' key.

Why not? Maybe not possible as Windows currently doesn't offer 'rotate desktop' functionality?

📝 Provide a description of the new feature

What is the expected behavior of the proposed feature? What is the scenario this woudl be used?

let's use #19 as tracker for the general idea of shortcuts for VDs.
