Proposal: Show brief instructions in the Keymapper tab

[holyjak]

I, as perhaps many others, have fallen into the trap of not opening keymapper in a different tab set. Since people in general do not read documentation, it would be nice to inform them about this in a way they cannot ignore.
I think that it would be best, when I open keymapper, it contained at the top a brief text, st. like

Showing binding for the currently active tab. Make sure to open this in a different tab set and then go to the tab you want to see keybindings for.

It would be even better if it could show what file/tab it is showing bindings for.

Seems like a good idea. An alternate approach might be to ignore keybinding
shifts when the active tab becomes keymapper, so it would work in either
case. Issue with that is I don't know if we can detect the change before
the keybindings have remapped.

Either way, should definitely do something in-plugin.
