[TxMt] Letters to disambiguate keyboard shortcuts

TextMate has a feature that if a keyboard shortcut maps to multiple 
commands (I'm mostly thinking of bundle commands) a context menu will 
open to allow the user to disambiguate the command. It's possible to use 
the numbers on the keyboard to select the correct command.

Would it be possible to use letters in addition/instead of the numbers 
to disambiguate the commands?

For example, in the Git bundle there are a lot of commands that map to 
the same same keyboard shortcut (⌘Y). Because they're so many only 
around a third of the commands have a number to disambiguate using the 
keyboard.

BTW, I tried to disable the keyboard shortcut for a couple of commands 
I'm not using but the "Key Equivalent" field is blank for all the Git 
commands. Does the Git bundle has some kind of special treatment?

I'm running TextMate version 2.0-beta.8.1 on OS X 10.10.3.
