Pull request overview

This PR improves keyboard shortcuts for screen reader users when creating new chat sessions by providing different keybindings based on whether accessibility mode is enabled.

  • Splits keybinding configuration into separate accessibility-aware configurations
  • Preserves existing Cmd+N and Cmd+L shortcuts when accessibility mode is disabled
  • Provides Cmd+L-only shortcut when accessibility mode is enabled (likely to avoid conflicts with screen reader navigation)
