Description

It would be nice if deleting variables could be done via a keyboard shortcut; at the moment, there seems to be no command available for this. Could this be added?

Research direction

No file, test, or command entry point is named. Start by locating the existing variable-deletion action and keyboard shortcut registrations in the Positron codebase, then determine the intended command scope and add coverage; done means the command is discoverable and its shortcut deletes all variables as requested.
