i am guessing these basic hotkeys are hardcoded in the interface, like Alt+'
also, which in my case is Alt+0, since i am using a hungarian keyboard, but
it works nevertheless, unlike these Ctrl+Y and other keybindings of brosers
for example.
please keep in mind that laptops don't have right super key, so writing
extensions that use that key cannot be used by people whi have laptops.
