Feature Description:

I would like to request a feature enhancement for the Theia AI chat integration to align it with Visual Studio Code on macOS. Currently, the default keybinding to open the AI chat window is set to ⌘+⌥+I.

theia/packages/ai-chat-ui/src/browser/ai-chat-ui-contribution.ts

Line 55 in 424c048

toggleKeybinding: 'ctrlcmd+alt+i'

However, this conflicts with the browser's default Dev Tools keybinding, which is ⌘+⌥+I.

To improve the user and developer experience, I propose that the keybinding for opening the AI chat window be aligned with the default VS Code bindings. This would allow users to utilize the ⌘+⇧+I combination for the AI chat. This would prevent the overriding of the Dev Tools access and make it easier for devs to switch between tools seamlessly.

I do not know what the keybindings for VS Code Copilot are on Windows and Linux, but the dev-ex could be improved on macOS. Related: #12693.

Thank you!
