Hi there
I'd love to see Textmate notify me if I attempt to set a keybinding that the application is already using.
At present, I can enter the same keybinding twice (or more) without any notification. BBEdit alerts you if you attempt to do this and it is quite helpful.
I'm guessing that if you do enter a shortcut that has already been taken, TextMate fails to then display it in the corresponding menu?

Yes, this is currently a Cocoa limitation.
The ability to use the same key equivalent multiple times as actually a feature. If you assign e.g. F5 to multiple macros, you'll get a menu when you press F5 (allowing you to choose which of the macros you want). This behavior is so far only for macros, but it should be extended to customize everything which allows for a key binding.
In the future I may also make an 'inspector' sort of thing, to see what keys bind to, or at least some sort of centralized key bindings editor.
Kind regards Allan
