Description

first of all, thanks for the amazing extension its very handy and save tone of time. ❤

so the thing is the View in CmdPal option is the very useful but its hidden in the More menu with need to click Ctrl+K and navigate to the option.

better alternative remove the Copy URL that hold the shortcut Ctrl+Enter option and replace it with View in CmdPal
that way the most used option as of Open and View will be easily accessible and the Copy options will all get together in the More menu.

Research direction

Start by locating the footer bar and More menu implementation in the C# extension, then trace how the existing View in CmdPal and Copy URL actions are registered. Done means View in CmdPal is directly visible in the footer bar, while Copy URL is moved into the More menu; verify both actions still work.
