Supporting bookmarks will require "cascading accelerators" à la Emacs. To implement this requires

ensuring that the key mapping file format supports multiple keys
when loading keys building a prefix tree for key sequences.
when a key stroke is pressed match it in the prefix tree. If it is a terminal node in the tree execute the command. If not remember the key stroke, display it in the status bar. Repeat for each key stroke until a leaf node is reached or until an invalid character is typed.

The ProcessKey method of the MenuSystem class will be most affected by this enhancement.
