Is Key Free: promote to Blender 2.79 Release #50835

New Issue

This little add-on is to find a free shortcut. Furthermore, it is very useful to learn new shortcuts.

Edit by @BrendonMurphy
After discussion with @antoniov in irc iskeyfree will be added to Blender 2.79 release in the addons "Development" section.
It is a useful tool for discovering hotkeys & both devs & users can benefit from this tool.
What it does is allow the user or dev to immediately search any key combination to check for mapping, contexts & check availability.
A great tool for addons devs to NOT overwrite each others hotkeys & more important, provides a great tool to help redesign keymaps in the future.

@BrendonMurphy I'm not sure if the keymap system is going to change in 2.8, so we must keep a note about this to take actions if needed.

Let me know if you need any change or help.
