Everything on this list can be configured in the “Keyboard” tab of the Settings dialog. Additionally, everything on this list can be accessed with the “command palette” using the default key combo of Ctrl-P. The keys in the “Global hotkeys” section can be used in any window, although not when a text field is activated.
