This relates to some previous issues, for example this one.

I agree with tamerh's request - such a feature could tremendously help both tablet users (and tablets are getting more popular by the minute), and disabled users who rely on customized hot keys for accessibility reasons. I'd gladly donate funds specifically to support the development of this feature.

Support for keyboard shortcuts such as Ctrl+T, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+L/Alt+D, Ctrl+F, etc. is a huge QoL consideration when using tablets with physical keyboard attachments, as more and more people are doing.

I found these ideas related to this:

Could we maybe get some of these merged for better visibility?
