Create a Hotkey to Open the Calendar Modal in Workspace Panels

I would like to please request a Hotkey specifically for opening the Calendar modal within a Workspace panel.  We have a business unit who consumes Workspace-based reporting on both laptops and on iPads.  One difference (not mentioning the benefits of right-clicking within Workspace here!) is that the Calendar will not successfully come up via a touch or (long touch) on an iPad within a Workspace panel.  The workarounds that I have found include the following:

1. Filter "Components" to "Date Ranges", then find (within the form above) and drag/drop the desired date range for the panel (example, "Last Month") on TOP of the calendar for whose dates you wish to modify.  (Voila!)

2. Use the hotkeys for "Create a Date Range" (cmd + shift + d) if you would like to create a NEW date range (i.e., for the duration of a specific marketing campaign, for example: "Black Friday Sale") and then go to step #1 above to insert it into the Workspace panel.

It may be more complicated than this (i.e., there are likely other differences in using not only the functionality of the Calendar if it were to be available on iPad--not to mention other functionality within Workspace--such as all of the right-click options noted above--as (attempted to be) used on the iPad), but I felt that asking for a Hotkey was a much smaller ask than asking for a reboot of the iOS app for Analytics. 

Please let me know if you can help. Thanks!
