Keybindings for certain keys do not work as intended with a Japanese keyboard on macOS. When defining keybindings, the @ key (right of 'P') and '[' key are both recognized as a [. Shift+@ is recognized as shift+`. The ¥ key is 'unrecognized' and shift+¥ is recognized as shift+.
There may be issues with other keys, too. I noticed this one specifically because there is no ` key on a Japanese keyboard and it's used to open the terminal.
I'm using my MacBook's default keyboard which is Japanese. I also have a bluetooth Apple Japanese keyboard that experiences the same issue.
- VSCode Version: 1.10.1

Steps to Reproduce:
- Open 'Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts' (cmd+k cmd+s)
- Click 'Define Keybinding' (cmd+k cmd+k)
- Press @ or ¥ on a Japanese keyboard.
