The very first thing I would do is look for repetitive behaviours and crack out Clippy v2.0.

You know when someone is like, writing 1 then 2 then 3 then 4 then ... or whatever? Yeah, Clippy 2.0.

"Did you know this hotkey called X exists"?

Multiply that by N users - bam you've saved the human race thousands of hours. I'll take my Nobel now.

IntelliJ has a plugin for that. https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9792-key-promoter-x/

IntelliJ IDEA has a plugin that will prompt you with the keys for commands you click. Pretty neat. Not exactly what you're saying (no compound actions). Still neat.
