Here's a thought I've had for a while - can we let users set global hotkeys to a command? For example, so that I can press ctrl+shift+h from anywhere, and immediately go to the Hacker News command?

(A more real use case for this: Win+Shift+C to get straight to "advanced paste")

(these global keybinds would presumably take precedence over the L0 shortcuts, but maybe we don't need both global ones AND L0 ones)
