I know, I always run into the same confusion. When it pops up saying
"hey, an app registered a new global shortcut" it doesn't even say
what shortcut it is, to even make the notification useful. In my mind,
it seems like one of those cases similar to how a messagebox can be
overused, stating or asking something that the user does not even
care/need to know about, and it just adds confusion.<br>
