Wonky Alt+Tab Behavior #10

@vstg005

Description

@vstg005

I use Alt+R as the keyboard shortcut for readability-redux. (don't remember what the default was). The extension gets inadvertently activated, replicated thus in Chrome 7.0.517.17 dev on Windows Vista x86_32:

  1. Use Alt+Tab to navigate to a chrome window.
  2. With focus anywhere on the page (other than Omnibar, Nav/Extension bar or Bookmarks Toolbar), hit just "R" (not assigned Alt+R shortcut) on keyboard.
  3. The readability script is triggered, causing a page refresh. Obviously, this is especially painful while typing something in a textbox (which is lost) or on a login session.

I was able to reproduce this behavior with a bunch of Alt+ shortcuts, and less consistently with Ctrl+ shortcuts.
