How to disable/override the ctrl+shift+i binding in VS.Code for Windows?

Question

ctrl+shift+i seems to be hard bound to open the VS.Code Inspector/debugger in Windows. I use an inverted-T on the home row for cursor control [1] and need this chord free for "select up":

{"key": "ctrl+shift+i",     "command": "cursorUpSelect",
                            "when": "editorTextFocus"},

How do I override this keybinding?

With VSCode 0.3.0 we no longer bind this keybinding by default!

To disable, add

{"key": "ctrl+shift+i",     "when": "editorTextFocus"}

to /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Code/User/keybindings.json. The lack of a command property indicates no action will be taken when editor text area has focus.

That didn't work for me (using Windows), the Inspector still shows on ctrl+shift+i. In any case, I still need that key chord for select line up.

We forgot to remove some debugging hard-coded keybindings. We'll remove them with our next update. Sorry about that!
