1. define a command (see org.eclipse.ui.commands extension point)
Note: you might define your own category (if so, make sure that your
editor registers the context with the key binding service)
2. define the key binding (see org.eclipse.ui.bindings extension point)
3. bind your action to this command when defining the action set (use
the command id as definitionId)

The category is used in the preference ui to group the commands. Either
use an existing category or create a new one.

Out of the box there's the default and the emacs scheme. Normally you
use the default one.
Regarding the context id: hard to say. From what class does your editor
inherit?

You can import the plug-ins (all those that you require) as binary
projects and then use the search dialog to find all contexts in the
plugin.xml files.

OK, then I suggest the following:
1. create your own scope that uses 'org.eclipse.ui.textEditorScope' as
parent
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.contexts">
<context
name="YOUR.name"
description="YOUR.description"
parentId="org.eclipse.ui.textEditorScope"
id="YOUR.id">
</context>
</extension>
2. add the following method to your editor:
/*
* @see
org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.AbstractDecoratedTextEditor#initia lizeKeyBindingScopes()
*/
protected void initializeKeyBindingScopes() {
setKeyBindingScopes(new String[] { "YOUR.id" }); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
3. use YOUR.id when defining the commands for your editor
Enjoy!

Thank you! That was the missing part of the puzzle!
It works like a charm.
