Can't you bind the mssql.runQuery command to f5 and have then "when" clause as "editorTextFocus && editorLangId == 'sql'"?

I _could_, but I'm curious why it doesn't do it for me? (I didn't actually know I could do that sort of mapping until just now!
Ctrl+Shift+E seems to be the default, but that doesn't match SSMS ... but this worked, thanks :)

@Offbeatmammal Like @MartinRiddar correctly pointed out, you can set your own keybindings. We don't want to override the default F5 behavior of vscode since a lot of users are used to it already, and hence the Ctrl/Cmd + Shift E shortcut for Execute Query
