I like the look.

I may be overthinking it, but some of the commands are not strictly correct with capitals. E.g. "Alt+S" is really "Alt+s". Is the assumption that when a capital is needed, the command will include an explicit "Shift", e.g. "Alt+Shift+S"?

No, the widespread best practice here is to use capital letters because that's what's printed on physical keyboards. Admittedly, virtual keyboards in mobile interfaces have muddied the waters here, but users generally understand that they are not to include the Shift key unless they see it as part of the combo.

Hello, this looks good on https://bugsquash.mobiusconsortium.org/eg2/en-US/staff

I was a bit confused by the Angular vs AngularJs differences. Ctrl+H being the help key for one and ? being the help key for the other.

Should this change be made for the older help interface also, since they will stick around for a while yet.

I'll work on a signoff branch.

Adding a link to related bug 1622358. It would still be useful for the shortcut keys to be noted in the menus.

I agree, it would be great to have this in AngularJS as well!
