Research direction
The issue requests adding a hotkey (CMD+D) to discard a recording. To implement, examine the existing keyboard shortcut registration in the Kap codebase, likely in the menu or main process. Look for where shortcuts are defined, possibly using Electron's globalShortcut or menu accelerators. Add a new shortcut to trigger the discard action on the confirmation prompt.
