Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A good way to learn the available keyboard shortcuts in any given context is to open the menu and see what's available. It would be good if I didn't have to manually navigate the menu to perform an action.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like the shortcut keys shown in a menu to perform the associated action

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the menu rendering logic and the keybinding registration mechanism in the codebase. Look for where menu items are created and how shortcuts are mapped to actions. Then implement a handler that executes the action when a shortcut key is pressed while the menu is open.
