ACS Printer Session has no key stroke for Jump - IBM i Access Client Solutions Merged

IBM I Access Client Solutions - Printer Session
The printer session in ACS has no keyboard mapping associated with it so when using the keyboard to jump between sessions I get stuck on the printer session and I have to resort to using the mouse to get to the session I want. The printer session only has 'jump' in the menu but no short-cut key stroke associated with it. This feature works in the old 'IBM i Access for Windows' because there's a keyboard mapping associated with the session in the 'preferences'.
Please add the 'Keyboard...' selection to the Printer Session the same as in the Display Session.


Use Case:

I open multiple 5250 sessions including a printer session.
I use the [Alt]+[PageUp] to toggle between my open windows
When it gets to the printer session window it stops.
Now you have to find 'jump' in the menu or use the mouse to get to the window you want.
