Summary0006550: Action bar usability tweak
DescriptionI suggest that the action bar have an indication of the currently mapped keybind for each slot listed above/below the current slot. As it stands right now, each slot has a number above it, counting from 1 to 9 plus 0. What are these numbers even for? They aren't my key bindings. They seem to be arbitrary...

I made a quick mockup in MSPaint to illustrate how it could look*.

*not my actual keybindings

The rationale is twofold:
1) Sometimes I forget what I bound to each slot
2) I would feel more comfortable binding other keys to the slots if I knew I could see my bindings right there

This already works, so you must have rebound them wrong. Did you rebind the mouse buttons instead of keyboard buttons? Also, every binding can be double-bound, but it only shows the first binding for the sake of brevity. Perhaps you bound the second binding rather than the first?

Yeah that's why I did at first. You have to make sure to bind the first binding.

Oops. I had rebound the alternate keybind when testing this.

Works as intended then.
