Initiate search from clipboard text
-
I frequently find myself copying something to my clipboard, going to Vivaldi, clicking on the search/address bar, pasting the text, then pressing Enter to being the search. I thought, "It would be so handy if there was a keyboard shortcut to just search Google/etc for what's in my clipboard!"
Is such a thing possible?
Should I just use AutoHotKey and leave you guys alone?
Would anyone else use this feature?

@mikesigs There are already easy ways to do this, but vote for the existing request: Middle-click on Tab Bar to Open Tab with URL or Search Text, which is even easier, but requires a middle mouse button.
-
If the text is copied from elsewhere, right-click in the URL field and use "Paste and Go."
-
If the text is on the page, right-click, search or search with to choose the search engine.
Vote for Super Drag and Drop.

@mikesigs Hi, good news, you can already do this!
Use the "paste and go" keyboard shortcut.
You can set one in Settings > Keyboard > Window > "Paste and Go"
I have mine set to Ctrl + Shift + V
