Feature Suggestion

Hi All,

I was wondering if it would be possible to introduce multiple leader keys. The reason I ask for this is because for my vimrc I have rebound so many keys and so far I found the easiest way to emulate it in VSCode was through the leader key but unfortunately we are limited to one.
