This is a neat idea! Maybe there's a delay before the hint is displayed, so it's not annoying to users who know the shortcuts.

cc <@U05597DUYDD>, who has been thinking about improving our shortcut usability! this is a neat idea that we’ll consider as we staff work in this area :slightly_smiling_face:

yep, IMO spacemacs hinting
and neovim which-key

are both high influences on my thinking here

i built this for super/hyper keys on macos <https://github.com/dbalatero/HyperKey.spoon>

this is the spacemacs/neovim style:
(pictured: a user hit the `leader` key and after 500ms timeout sees a help menu. if they fire the shortcut faster than 500ms they don't see it)

i don't think we'll get to this short-term (next month~), but my plan is to definitely spec out a project around improving shortcuts, and prefix hinting is a big feature i'd like to include there
