Two shortcuts can never overlap — rebinding one to a combo another action already owns automatically un-assigns it from the previous owner. This holds across built-ins and plugin shortcuts alike: if a loaded plugin registered a : command with its own shortcut (see Plugins), it shows up in its own “Plugin Shortcuts” section further down the same window, remappable/unbindable the same way.
