Yeah, that's probably so. Also, I'm thinking Flash games (if anyone
plays those these days) wouldn't be playable if some keystrokes were
interpreted by the browser.

Still, it would be nice if some wide-used browser key combos such as
ctrl+T or ctrl+L got caught by the browser. For example in OS X I find
that this works - cmd+L jums directly to the nav bar.

Title:
  Starting a Flash video disables keyboard shortcuts

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I click play on a Youtube video, Firefox doesn't respond to
  keyboard shortcuts any more, even though it's shown to be the active
  window. Before I can get it to react to e.g. <ctrl>+L to let me enter
  something in the Awesome bar, I have to pick up my mouse, click
  somewhere on the webpage outside the Flash video and only then can I
  start entering keyboard shortcuts again.

  Expected behaviour - keyboard shortcuts should work the whole time.
