Layout agnostic keyboard shortcuts

[sojusnik]

I've set Ctrl+Shift+L to open the sidebar, but when I switch to a Russian layout, this shortcut stops working. Is this a bug or by design?

As the default Firefox shortcuts are layout agnostic, the ones from your great add-on should be too.

I think this has to do with how the shortcuts are captured and stored.

KeyboardEvent.keyCode is being depreciated so developers are moving all events to KeyboardEvent.key

MDN

If the same button outputs a different KeyboardEvent.key when you switch layouts, you'll run into problems.

There are drawbacks with both .key and .keyCode. I'm just trying to stay compliant with the standards.
