This is very close to what our describe-key does. I can only try out the KDE version and that one feels definitely completely different from describe-key. While I can not try out the MS Windows version, I got three people familiar with MS Windows vs one confirming that the MS Windows version behaves closely to the way I described the KDE version. That also is the impression I get from the Microsoft web site. Sincerely, Luc.
