From what I was told before, people using Linux were having a problem with those shortcuts, because of conflicts. Isn't possible to add some kind of filter, then? Like: if (windows) registerShorcut();

For an immediate workaround for Windows users, if you disable that close to tray thing and just keep it pinned to your task bar, you can open it with WinKey + the number of the position it's in. For example if you have it pinned to the first position (which you should cause it's so important :grin:)…
