* May conflict with the Hide Window shortcut on some distributions (e.g., it does on Pop!_OS). To change a keybinding, you must edit the schema.gschema.xml file in the source, run glib-compile-schemas in the source directory, and then reload the extension either by restarting Gnome Shell on X11 (alt+F2 r) or logging out and logging back in on Wayland.
