You can always use the IDEA macro recorder and assign it a shortcut key.

Unfortunately not. It won't record the Enter keypress needed

Perhaps then we could submit a RFE that the macros can be edited a la
Photoshop, where for each action you can toggle a checkbox "suppress
dialog", which causes it to run with the arguments entered while you
recorded the macro.

There should be also a top-level "suppress dialog" three-state checkbox,
which would take precedence for all actions macro.

Does it sound like a reasonable suggestion?
