Agreed. I think I was more or less thinking about making it a bit more
esthetically pleasing, the example you linked to looked a bit
technical still (to me anyway). But it's a template, so we can
experiment with different representational styles - the underlying
code will be the same.

Speaking of which... Stefano had this idea of having different styles
of formatting hotkeys, but apparently the users mostly do it with the
K template, even for key combinations (there are several, for shift,
ctrl etc). I think the hotkey template parser should be forgiving
enough for this kind of user behaviour! (see
