Not too long ago we got some new controls in various inventory menus. For example, we got the ability to hold left click and drag to split a stack evenly between available spaces, or to drag and right click to put one of the stack in each available space. So while fooling around with brewing I asked myself, why not a few more? Here are a few of my ideas on the subject.
Hotbar and Containers
Quick Transfer One Item
Shift + Right Click
Transfers one item from a stack to the hotbar (or container if looking in a chest/furnace/etc.). Useful for brewing so you don't need to pick up an entire stack of an ingredient then right click once on the ingredient slot, then place them back in your inventory. Also good for any situation where you just need one of an item
Quick Transfer All of Item Type
Shift + Double Left Click
Double Left Clicking on an item will attempt to pick up the maximum number of that item that it can. This is similar, but instead will transfer as many of the item as possible to the hotbar or container you are accessing. Useful for quickly placing three Bottles of Water in a Brewing Stand or for unloading an inventory full of Cobblestone after a long dig. Note: This is currently in the game, but you must pick up a stack of items then Shift + Double Click another stack of the same item it will transfer all the items it can. I suggest it be changed to my idea because having to pick up an item then do it is just an unneeded step.
Craft As Many As Possible
Shift + Right Click (Crafting Grid output only)
This will make as many of an item as possible with how much of the items you have in your inventory. Meaning if you need to use 4 stacks of sticks and 4 stacks of coal to make torches, you only need to put one of each in the recipe, then Shift + Right Click the output on the Crafting Grid. It will make as many as it can until you run out of space to hold the items or you run out of the required items. Great for making a lot of a single block type at once.

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers what the Universe is for, it will be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
Thanks for the support. I have some ideas related to crafting only controls but I don't know if I should add them.

This one is already in the game, actually. Pick up a stack of cobble, and shift + double click another stack. It will transfer as many stacks as it can.

Huh, so it is. I still think changing the control to this would make it easier and more apparent to the player. To my knowledge that isn't listed anywhere on the wiki.

What would be nice is an in-game list of controls like these. There are lots of little time saving tricks that many people probably don't know about.

Shift + Right Click
Press CTRL + Left click.
Other than that, I support the ideas.
