Yes, that looks good. At the moment we don't have any function to
retrieve the current set of key shortcuts, but it could be written. And
that help could (optionally) pop up whenever you typed something not
otherwise a shortcut (on the basis that you clearly don't know what you
are doing :), though it would need to be turned off once you were at the
stage of just occasionally miss-typing, otherwise it would be very
irritating.
