hotkeys (shortcuts) configuring by user

Is it possible to enable an user to change and add his own hotkeys for all/some menu (including context menu) commands?
Eg I miss very much hotkeys for the commands "Copy file path/name" and "Copy file path/name".

Configurable hotkeys is nice, but at the moment I don't plan to do this. It's a boring thing to program, you know

Funny you mention this! There
was a hotkey exactly for this,
Ctrl+P, and had forgotten that when I assigned Ctrl+P to the panel sizing (overwriting the older function).
I'm ready to hard-assign other keys to "Copy file path/name" and "Copy file path", and here's your chance to make a suggestion:
which ones??

PS: since we had the issue with Ctrl+P triggering the HTML preview's print dialogue, it would be a good idea to reassign Ctrl+P to Copy Path and maybe Ctrl+Shift+P to Copy Path/Name (or vice versa?). And find a new hotkey for the panel sizing. What do you think?

Certainly the Ctrl-P triggering the HTML preview print dialogue is a big problem for me. Another key combination sounds fine but I still like the idea of the mouse left double click on the separator bar or mouse minimise / maximise button.

Really? I was thought you were kidding! But I experienced myself in the meantime that it can be annoying.

I'm personally not such a fan of double clicks. Also, AFAIK it's not standard expected behavior for splitters -- but what the heck, I agree that IF jump-sizing is mouse-triggered then left double click on the separator bar is certainly the way to do it.
But a want a hotkey, too! And I'll find one... oh yeah, i found a nice one:
Ctrl+Numpad+ (Add sign). Doesn't do anything to a focused HTML preview, and I think one can get used to it.

OK, file full name is now Ctrl+P. But how about file path copying hotkey? (Ctrl+Shift+P ??)

Yep, Ctrl+Shift+P, comes with the next BETA.
