Describe the feature you'd like

When I insert a new code block with Ctrl+E I don't want to have to pick the language every time. Maybe use the language of the above code block. I'm uncomfortable using the mouse and picking it every time is a chore.

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users

Less friction.

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?
