Description

I've been using Element for a few months at this point and have noticed a pressing issue; there is no way to set custom keybinds. I think this is an issue because of the various issues that could arise when being forced to use the default keybind for, as an example, muting (CTRL+D.)

The "control" key is very commonly used as something for running or crouching in video games, meaning that if you were using Element and playing a game, muting would interfere with your game. I am personally not a very big fan of this, and I don't think many others are either.
