Description of the new feature/enhancement

Currently we can scroll up and down in the history with the keyboard but the cursor remains at the bottom.
That's why, when we want to copy/paste something from the history we have to use the mouse.

The idea is that when we scroll up and down with the keyboard, the cursor is following.
Also once the cursor is inside the history, we can move right and left with the keyboard to select the text we need.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
