Tooltips should display keybindngs #6469

Description of the new feature/enhancement

The tooltip for new tab, close etc should say the keybinding in brackets, for example: "New Tab (Ctrl+T). Although it would be hard to implement as users can change shortcuts.

Yea, they probably should. If someone could figure out how to get the user's actual keybindings into those tooltips, that'd be appreciated, thanks!

for my own notes: this is separate from

This is specifically the New Tab button and the caption close button

I would suggest that the key bindings should be available in tab context menu directly, not in tooltips. This would increase dicvoerability. E.g. I tried the most obvious shortcut to Close Tab: Ctrl+W which did not work (because in Terminal it's Ctrl+Shift+W for some reason). It would be great if the key binding was reminded directly in the tab context menu
