Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (choose one):
Environment:
- VSCode Version: 1.13.1
- VsCodeVim Version: 0.8.6
- OS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
What happened:
In Command Pallete (after pressing Ctrl+Shift+P) displayed keyboard shortcuts tips are standard one, not this which really work.
What did you expect to happen:
If e.g. shortcut Ctrl+W is overwritten by VSCodeVim (and now you must use :tabc), I expect that when I search Close Windows in Command Pallete I see :tabc shortcut tip, not Ctrl+W. This apply of course for every shortcut which is different.
How to reproduce it:
Press Ctrl+Shift+P, type close window and see that provided shortcut tip is Ctrl+W, even when Ctrl+W doesn't work.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in the VS Code Command Palette by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P and searching for “close window” with the reported VSCodeVim behavior. Trace how VSCodeVim overrides Ctrl+W and how the Command Palette displays shortcut tips. Done means overridden commands show their effective VSCodeVim shortcut instead of Ctrl+W.
