Display application specific global hot-key in Keyboard Shortcuts preferences?

I have a global hot-key for my program and that all works fine, but a
user brought up a good point: They'd like to see this hot-key and be
able to manipulate the shortcut from this UI also. That way all (Well,
almost all) hot-keys are viewable and editable from the same UI. Seams
like a good idea.

Is there anyway to achieve this functionality? One hack I may try is
something along this line:
- Add a menu item that is tied to the same function as the current hot-key
- Edit the defaults for the keyboard shortcuts preferences to add a
hot-key for that menu item for my application
- SOmehow keep all this in sync

Hopefully that would show the hot-key for the application in the
Keyboard Shortcuts UI.

Has anybody done this before? Is there a better way?
