*Use the palette, Luke!*
HAH! I'm going to use this one!! Indeed, before looking elsewhere or 
wondering  if a particular feature exist, just open the command palette, 
(ctrl+shift+P) which is vscode's own 'minibuffer' ;) ... and start typing 
the most relevant about the feature you're thinking about.

For example, if you're wondering if a plugin is needed to preview md files, 
open an md file, and make sure your cursor focus is into it, (if coming 
from a Leo outline's, make sure it's external file is opened, not the body 
pane)... open the command palette and start typing 'preview'! tada!

*Context sensitive shortcuts and commands*
Reading your exchange also got me thinking I should point out a point about 
vscode you should be aware:
Vscode is context sensitive with its shortcuts. For example:

Having the focus in a 'Leo' panel (outline, body pane) will react on Leo's 
shortcuts : 
[ctrl+*minus*] replace, [ctrl+*plus*]  replaceThenFind

While having your cursor focus in a regular (non-leointeg) editor, or 
explorer view, terminal, etc...:
[ctrl+*minus*] zoom in, [ctrl+*plus*]  zoom out

*It is the case for many other shotcuts, obviously.*

to change shortcuts, you guessed it, use the command palette 
(ctrl+shift+P), and start typing 'key'
