Description of the new feature/enhancement

Ability to create key bindings for the "applications" (a.k.a. "menu") key found on many modern keyboards.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Add a new recognised key app, allowing the following:

{ "command": "openNewTabDropdown", "keys": "app" }
