Keyboard shortcut strings are sometimes formatted strangely in Copilot responses

[jruales]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: N/A (needs GitHub Copilot extension)

• VS Code Version: 1.106.0-insider (Universal)
• OS Version: macOS Sequoia 15.7.1

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Ask Copilot to tell you the keyboard shortcut of a certain command
2. Then, notice how it formats the keyboard shortcut strings:

Sometimes, Copilot will output the shortcut as a Markdown code span (with backtick, like so: ⇧⌥F), which looks very strange and buggy because of the different sizes and font weights of the displayed unicode glyphs:

Other times, it will be displayed within a Markdown bold span (with "**", like so: ⇧⌥F), where the glyphs look much nicer with equal size and font weight.:

Another possibility is that Copilot could use the kbd HTML tag (Like so: ⇧ + ⌥ + F, although note that here on GitHub, GitHub seems to also be formatting the ⇧ and ⌥ characters inside of kbd tag in a strange way).

If the kbd HTML tag were to be used, it should be noted that the Copilot output isn't able to handle those tags at the moment:
