I assume it's the shortcut keys that are the issue here?

I'm not sure what specifically is the right way to fix this, perhaps others who use different keyboard layouts can comment on how other apps handle this. Is this something that the application should automatically do something about, or is providing customizable shortcuts for every action sufficient?

Usually programs use keycode instead of key name, for example Godot Engine in input settings of the game
