Bug Description

It used to be available in many audio applications browser and is very convenient.
Would be nice to have in Mixxxx.

FWIW the most used shortcut for this feature is CTRL+I, which is currently taken by "Enable Vinyl Control 4".
So we might find another shortcut or move the existing around (not released yet as of v1.12)

For a start, i have the shortcut working.
Any hints on how to display the Shortcut right next to the mouse-menu`s ``Properties`` item?

The Properties Action is set here:
https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/blob/42c61e010cfd93f9bbc304cf9fb348ec4d315743/src/widget/wtracktableview.cpp#L393

    m_pPropertiesAct->setShortcut(
        QKeySequence(m_pKbdConfig->getValueString(ConfigKey("[KeyboardShortcuts]", ... ), tr("Ctrl+i"))));

IMHO this should show the short cut in the menu.

We should consider this in our new library navigation approach.

Now double-click on any WTrackProperty or WTrackText opens the Properties window.
