  <title> Quick Select Plugin</title>
  <p>
    The Quick Select Plugin does not provide a visible interface like the other default <app>Accerciser</app> plugins - 
    instead, it adds facilities for quickly selecting items in the <link xref="desktop_tree_view">Application Tree View</link> via
    global hotkeys. Originally, these hotkeys were part of <app>Accerciser</app>'s core code, turning into the Quick
    Select Plugin later.
  </p>
  <p>
    The Quick Select Plugin provides two global hotkeys. Pressing <keyseq><key>ctrl</key><key>alt</key><key>a</key></keyseq>
    selects the last focused accessible widget in the Application Tree View. Pressing <keyseq><key>ctrl</key><key>alt</key><key>/</key></keyseq>
    selects the accessible widget under the pointer in the Application Tree View and highlights it in the target application.
