Description
I had requested this in a separate issue and asked to move it to new new ticket.
I would still like to request allowing the same keyboard shortcuts for
actions across server types. After years of F5 meaning execute query in
SSMS, I would like to set F5 as my execute query keyboard shortcut when
connected to either server type. And the correct "Execute Query" would run.![]()
I have this setup, but I see the following if I'm connected to a Postgres
database and hit F5:![]()
Should I open a separate ticket for this?
Thanks again!
Mike

Research direction
Start by reviewing how keyboard shortcuts are currently resolved from editorLangId and how the active PostgreSQL connection type is exposed. Define the expected behavior for the same shortcut across server types, including which Execute Query action should run, then verify it with the existing shortcut handling and connection scenarios.
