Add indentation to the custom hotkey settings

Please add the currently unchangeable keyboard shortcuts for indention to the hotkey settings menu to allow for customization. Currently stuck on Ctrl-[ and Ctrl-]

There’s two trends for hotkeys:

  1. Niche features that are great but only used by a few so that the rest of us can clear the hotkeys if we don’t need them
  2. Frequently used features by everyone can be customized to fit a user’s unique workflow

Between lists, code, and block quotes, indentation is used so frequently in markdown that it seems the user should be free to choose their hotkey preference.

In the meantime, can anyone help? The Obsidian Help document lists these shortcuts:
Indent | | Ctrl/Cmd ]
Unindent | | Ctrl/Cmd [
I’m on a Danish keyboard so I cannot make these shortcuts work. Therefore, I have no option to indent/unindent, except for placing the cursor in the beginning of a list and press tab/shift-tab. Very annoying for a basic function I use all the time.
