Display Keyboard Shortcut Hints on Buttons and Menu Actions #2

Description

@don-sabu

It would be helpful to display keyboard shortcut hints alongside toolbar buttons when users enter a shortcut-discovery mode (similar to how Microsoft Office shows key tips).

The goal is to make available shortcuts more discoverable and improve keyboard navigation efficiency. The trigger does not need to be tied to a specific key; the activation mechanism can be determined by the application.

Expected Behavior

Users can activate a shortcut-hint mode (such as pressing Alt).

Visible actions/buttons display their associated keyboard shortcuts.

Hints disappear when the mode is exited or a shortcut is executed.

Benefits

Improves shortcut discoverability.

Encourages keyboard-driven workflows.

Enhances accessibility and productivity for power users.
