Description

Review the PR here that shows a good solution introducing HotKey support to web views.
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cosmosdb/pull/2704

Both extensions share similar web view architecture, adding hot key support to our web views should be straight forward at this point.

In this iteration add simple shortcut to save documents in our DocumentsView.

We'll add other shortcuts in a second PR.
