Bug Description
## Description
The "jump-to-page" feature is a boon to keyboard users but in its current implementation I feel that it is redundant to the page counter.
## Proposal
Instead of having a separate page jump dialog it might be a good idea to simply implement a shortcut to focus the currentPage toolbar element. Given how <Ctrl>+<L> switches focus to the location bar in web browsers and file managers this might be a good choice for the default shortcut assignment. Keeping the Jump hotkey would work as well, of course.

Hello Ari,
the jump to page dialog is indeed redundant with the tool bar entry as it was specifically requested by people using qpdfview without the tool bars. :-) But I do see the usefulness of adding keyboard shortcuts to focus the two important tool bar elements "currentPage" and "scaleFactor", so I'll try adding those. (Have to think of a sensible default though...)
Best regards, Adam.
