Keyboard shortcuts for setting task priority (color)
I use the priority (color) function heavily. It would be a big speed and enjoyment boost if I could specify the priority (color) on the fly with the familiar Checkvist double-tap shortcut method:
'rr' for red
'bb' for blue
'gg' for green
This would be much more fluid than having to reach up to the number row every time. It seems these codes aren't currently being used by other shortcuts unless I'm mistaken, so why not put them to good use for accessing an important function?
Thanks for considering.
We use 1,2,.. 6 keyboard shortcuts to set color/priorty

I understand, and also thought about the multiple languages issue, but still thought I'd put it out there. I'll move my votes to the customizable shortcuts as that would take care of anything in this arena. Thanks.

Hello Aaron,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. But.I don't think we will add shortcuts like 'rr' for red color. One reason for this is that we plan to make colors customizable, and 'rr' will be irrelevant in this case: http://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/443120-add-more-color-options-other-then-just-red-green
As an alternative to your request, we should implement customizable keyboard shortcuts for different operations: http://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/158283-custom-keyboard-shortcuts-ability-to-control-vim
On the other hand, we have plans to allow smart syntax for priorities:
