> Or how about a shortcut to create a new record from anywhere, which _respects the view currently open_ and thus auto-fills/filters accordingly. Ctrl-Shift-N or whatever, a dialog pops up, with the Type set to the current View (where possible),

This is a great suggestion. Would help me in many cases where I am trying to limit Types by using single-select to effectively create a few “types” within a Type. But I can’t get to that field on Entity creation, which I can do in most other apps, including Notion via their Templates in many cases of entity creation. If the dialog you suggest would pop open even a minimal pre-configured modal, for example with [Required Fields](https://community.fibery.io/t/form-view-and-required-fields/680/3) (when we hopefully get that feature) to mimimalize how big the “task creation” modal is.

If you could default at least to the open View or Entity, that would make a lot of sense. I’ve noticed ClickUp does exactly this, very useful. ClickUp also has a reduced-size Task Creation modal, which helps solve the problem I’m having of needing to choose the single-select in some of my entities upon creation, but not being able to do that without a bunch of manual steps first.

Good commentary as always!
