At the moment most Visual Studio configurations already have a shortcut assigned to ctrl =

Since it is bad practice to remove a users shortcut without notice, the best solution would be on startup to show a screen which asked if they wanted the shortcut changed and automatically do it for them.

In my case i just removed the conflicting shortcut that was preventing it from working. workaround rather than solution though.
