Problem/Motivation

Shortcut module employs a one-off storage for the association of of users to shortcut sets instead of using a proper field.
This has several disadvantages:

Proposed resolution

Make the {shortcut_set_users} table a shortcut_set (base) field on the user entity type by implementing hook_entity_base_field_info() in Shortcut module.

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

None.

API changes

None.

    Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

    We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

    Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

    Thanks!
