Ctrl+/ is available as I checked.

Let's check with design team, if they know of any risks associated with this.

Slash before and after a word makes it italic (Tools > AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options... > Options > "Automatic *bold*..."). Hotkeys are accessed per alt+<key>, meaning the underlined part of labels. Don't see any benefit from back/slash in labels. Plus, consider that these characters are not so easy to reach on non-English keyboards. => WF, however curious about the actual use case. So what do you have in min?
