Comment shortcut (Ctrl+/) in script and expression editor

I continuously find myself trying (Ctrl+/) to try to comment in both the load script editor and expression editor. This is a common comment shortcut in text editors such as VS Code and in programming language IDEs. It would make developers lives easier to have this in Qlik Sense  enterprise. I find this way of commenting faster than going to the // icon in the load script or typing // at the start of a line somewhere.

Fyi, the script editor is based on CodeMirror

Can be customized:
