Fixes needed:

Display the shortcut in the Channel menu.

This seems to be done in 4.0

Enable the shortcut to work in the channel area like "shift E" for extrapolate does.

I guess this would be possible.

Remove duplicate entry under the Key menu, that does happen to show the short cut but I don't think I have looked for it under Key menu because it is a channel operation, not something you can add to just a keyframe?

Not sure what you are referring to, I don't see this item in 3.5 or 4.0. Can you clarify?

3.5.1

Channel and Key menu both have the same option just one doesn't show the short cut and I wouldn't expect it in key since it is per channel.

Ok I see what you mean now. So this is resolved in 4.0 version. So what's left is the request to make shortcuts work in channels region. For one shortcut, this is possible to do, however it may not be good idea to support all shortcuts there, which I assume you meant it that way. Ultimately this is a request for modified behavior and would be up to module to decide. Since it is not little amount of work I am not going to confirm this report, but rather recommend to use https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Communication/Contact#User_Feedback_and_Requests for your request. Also because this is not limited to graph editor but many other areas.

Just to confirm, it isn't a bug to show the user a shortcut that doesn't work, in a popover menu that is only accessible in that area, while other shortcuts do work even now that the menu is under channels. I didn't test all of the options but in trying a random few they seem to work in both areas.

This becomes a feature request because from me looking at it, it looks like the Dopesheet is missing the operator access to allow the shortcut to work, even though that is the only area and way to SEE the option in the popover menu?

Thanks

I wanted to check why exactly the shortcut (Shift+E) doesn't work in channels region, but it looks that it actually works. I am quite sure I have tried it though, so perhaps there are some special cases where this happens? Or maybe misunderstand this issue?

What I have done is:

Start Blender (4.0)
Add location keyframe to cube by pressing I key
Change timeline area to graph editor
Put mouse cursor in graph editor channels region and press Shift+E
I get set extrapolation menu

Does this not work for you?

That works and is a different menu and not what we are talking about here in this post.
I am talking about shift + ctrl + m for access to all the modifiers not just extrapolation. I used mentioned shift + E in the post as an example of one that does work while shift + ctrl + m (Now displayed in 4.0) only works over the graph/curve area and not the channels area.

Thanks for clarification, lost context from yesterday. I will confirm then for this keymap.
