Assigning keyboard shortcut to show/hide contextual taskbar

[Prof AOK]

I find the new contextual taskbar useful in certain circumstances, but mostly distracting and in the way. So I thought it would be a good idea to assign a custom keyboard shortcut to show/hide the thing. Turns out it is missing from the list of commands in the Keyboard Shortcut editor. Any idea why?
