maybe global/local scope could also be a switch, once you are in spotter

Q: does "contextual spotter" inherit all the features from the global one?
If yes, why not overriding shift+enter? - if you're on a global scope, you open a global spotter - if you're on a local scope, you open a local spotter (that also does global spotter things)
Also, it will be more easy to discover => just a single shortcut, and people will start using it directly, maybe even without knowing it

Most of you donât know it, but Calypso incorporates an option to show a âcontextual spotterâ which will list all available commands in the context you selected. This is meant to help on discoverability and reachability of commands available.
This is *in addition to shortcuts* not a replace of them (but lets be honest, we have far more commands than those that are possible to handle with a simple shortcut).
Anyway, originally I mapped this command to meta+/, which fitted well with my keyboard and language, but seems is not the case for many others (and this is not working at all on windows).
So. Iâm looking for options :)
So far I have this two ideas:
1- alt+enter 2- meta+h
First one looks nice, but Iâm not sure it will work on all platforms/combinations. What do you think?
Esteban
Ps: I will also add an icon somewhere to expose the contextual spotter.
