I would advocate for not even having a shortcut for restarting the
kernel and rely on the menu/buttons for that. Restarting the kernel is
a very disruptive action, so I think it should have a fairly disruptive
invocation procedure.
You can always put a shortcut in later if people are always complaining
that they can't restart kernels fast enough :).
