An example here: CTRL + A. The idea is to represent shortcuts. This has a box round it just as kbrd does, but the colour is purple rather than white. If we want different colours we can, e.g. CTRL + A gives the old darker purple we used to have before we added the box. The feature now also supports showing the Mac symbol for command.
