Single toggle key for Selection and Trim Edit Mode

Can we please have a single toggle key to switch between Trim Mode and Selection/Normal Edit Mode.
Assigning 2 shortcuts here is a waste and does not bring any advantages.

Christoph, if there's only a single toggle key and I'm in Blade Edit Mode, how do I switch directly to Trim Edit Mode vs Selection Mode?

Hmm... I never use Blade Edit Mode - so I forgot about that.
I have a shortcut for the Razor - that's sufficient for me.
Maybe the toggle key could just switch back to whatever was active before Blade Edit Mode.

Perhaps I'm too old school, but I don't see any advantage to losing direct keyboard access to the individual modes ... conversely, a single keyboard modifier (eg ALT/OPT) that, while pressed, would temporarily toggle the currently active edit behaviour (from Selection to Trim or vice versa) would be great.

Yeah... the moment I read your first reply, I knew my feature request was dead.

This would be a good alternative (like it is done in AVID).
We already have a similar functionality, where you can press the Trim Edit shortcut while trimming
and it reverts back to Normal Mode after the trim, but I can't get used to press the shortcut after I use the mouse and let it go before I let the mouse go...

I find the current design superior. I vote no change.
