Indeed it could be intended and if you use the Default Key it makes sense. But as Akunki says if you use another Key, in my case it is [TAB] for the inventory, when you press [TAB] nothing is happening.. So it would be nice to have this feature back, because it was very handy.
You save like 1 Second each time, that sounds not so much but in the long run it's making a diffence.
Yes that would ne nice. It's not necassary but would be really handy.
