Enable binding keyboard shortcuts to a button in Office Add-in or a function in JavaScript

I have implemented an Excel Add-in, where there are buttons. Clicking on a button will trigger a JavaScript function.

It will be much convenient to allow users to bind shortcut to a button / function. Users will be able to trigger them more quickly when they need.

There may be several possibilities as solutions: 1) provide a mean in JavaScript API to bind a shortcut to a button / function; so it will be the job of the add-in developer to bind a shortcut 2) provide a mean to allow users to bind a shortcut to a button in an add-in.

Note that, in Excel users can bind a shortcut to a VBA macro. That proves that binding shortcuts is a real need.

This request is also valid for Word Add-in (there is a suggestion: https://officespdev.uservoice.com/forums/224641-general/suggestions/6572900-add-keyboard-shortcut), PowerPoint Add-in...
