Add keyboard shortcut
In all previous versions of MS Word I used ability to assign keyboard shortcut to a macro. However JavaScript API for Office seems to not support this. It is so strange and unexpected.
Unfortunately absence of this feature is a blocker for me to develop custom plugins for Word 2013 online. Could be great to have it back!

Roman, thank you so much for your suggestion! We’re currently reviewing this suggestion to see if we can add it to our backlog. We’ll keep you posted.
Thanks!

@Roman as this is under review since november 2016, can we get an update on keyboard shortcut support for Word addins? This is a huge step in getting VBA and Office js functionality closer together.

Add this function to Excel would help us and our customer a lot.

This would be a really nice feature to have available for Excel as power users can use shortcuts to format cells driven by an Add-in.

We'd particularly like this feature to allow for setting up cell anchoring in Excel (F4 keyboard shortcut).
