Worked: (optional)

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I rely on the tooltips to learn keyboard shortcuts.
When hovering above the vertex / edge / face select button, the shortcut to enable this button is not mentioned.
expected:
Vertex Select: 1
Edge Select: 2
Face select: 3

These are not directly tied:

1 / 2 / 3 are the shortcuts for calling mesh.select_mode operator with different settings.
the buttons we see in the UI are (still) defined in C, see uiTemplateHeader3D_mode / uiTemplateEditModeSelection / uiTemplatePaintModeSelection (thats why these dont really define a shortcut)

Not technically a bug I assume, but feels like one, I agree...
@ideasman42, @WilliamReynish : anything against converting the above C stuff these to py [getting rid of the C]?

Will confirm with low prio for now [feel free to call this a known limitation for now and archive though...]

I would like to give this a try, is this task still open?
If yes then any tips/direction on getting started with this would be really helpful. I'm quite new to Blender development (it's my first time contributing to open source).
