Consistent shortcut keys & removing unnecessary ones

Hello everyone.

When You press M in the timeline to create a marker and you try to rename the selected & active marker by pressing F2, Blender asks to rename the selected object instead of the marker.

Proposal:

  1. You have marker selected & active
  2. Press F2 > Blender would ask to rename the marker
  3. You have marker unselected
  4. Press F2 > Blender would ask to rename the active object

This way you don't need to remember another shortcut key and ctrl + M shortcut can be removed (rename marker).

IMHO it should also consider your mouse position. If your cursor is in the timeline when you press F2, you're most likely willing to rename some timeline content, not viewport content.
