Feat: Add shortcut for navigation to previous view #1860

Description

Browsers and apps in general will support the keyboard shortcut, Alt + Left Arrow, for returning the user to the previous page.

I have a dedicated mouse button for this, I believe it just emulates that keyboard combination. Currently, App Center does not do anything when I try Alt + Left Arrow or use my mouse's back button. This is a shortcut that was supported on the old software app.

Feature request - support the Alt + Left Arrow keyboard shortcut for backwards navigation.

Current Behavior

  1. Navigate to an app page.
  2. Press Alt + Left Arrow
  3. Nothing happens.

Desired Behavior

  1. Navigate to an app page.
  2. Press Alt + Left Arrow
  3. The view should bring you back to the previous page you were looking at.

Shortcuts

Alt + Left Arrow would be the most popular I think.

Alt + Right Arrow could be added for forward navigation, but I would expect this shortcut to be used a lot less.

For reference
