Faster highlight color switching
Open for voting Requested
Switch highlight colors with fewer clicks while you read — for example with keyboard shortcuts or a quicker color picker.
What this would unlock
- Keyboard shortcuts to highlight in a specific color — one key per color
- Switch the active highlighter color without opening the full color picker
- Great for color-coding systems: one color for definitions, one for arguments, one for questions
- Recent colors and a last-used-format shortcut already exist today

Some of this already works: the color picker surfaces your recent colors for one-click re-use, and the highlight keyboard shortcut applies your last-used color. What this request tracks is switching colors even faster — think one shortcut per color. Vote if that would speed up your reading.
