+1 for such a shortcut in the toolbar (with a drop-down menu if there
are several maps?) or with a right-click context menu.
I also find the current way of setting the extent quite complicated.

Hi All,
before creating a ticket, I would like to discuss a small new feature
with
you.
Setting a map extent to current MapCanvas extent is not quite simple
for
users that want to open a map composer, rezoom it and print. The
question is
frequently asked to me.
User has to select the map with the select tool first, then find the
item
properties tab, then scroll to find the right button in the extent
collapsible group.
I'm wondering how we could have some kind of shortcut to 'Set to map
canvas
extent' somewhere.
Could we imagine button in the toolbar next to select and navigate
tool,
greyed out if no map object is selected? Any objection to that?
I was also thinking of starting to enable right clic contextual menu
on
objects, but that would need to some more options.
