+In some situations, like if you're producing sports, it can be useful to
+skip the preview step and cut directly to a source. Nageru supports this
+through **quick-cut keys**; if enabled, Q, W, E, etc. will have the same
+effect as pressing 1, 2, 3, etc. and then quickly J (for cut). Since it
+is easy to press such a key by mistake, this behavior is off by default,
+and must be enabled explicitly from the Video menu or through the
+“--quick-cut-keys” option.
