STR: (Win7, Nightly 42.0a1 (2015-08-10)) 1. Open devtools (Ctrl+Shift+I), go to "Inspector" tab 2. Press "Tab" 3. Press Ctrl+Shift+I Result: No visible changes (also, Ctrl+W and most of shortcuts don't work) Expectations: Devtools should collapse
Huh. So I figured out that focus just goes to breadcrumbs, and they cancel every shortcut they can, even the Tab key. This is affecting accessibility A LOT, so probably this was already filed I saw similar obtrusive handling of shortcuts in bug 1230325

Inspector bug triage. Filter on CLIMBING SHOES. The summary has changed a bit since the issue was opened. You can now TAB out of the breadcrumbs (but you cannot TAB back in). However most shortcuts are indeed prevented and ineffective (close tab/window, quit application, open tab, close devtools etc....).
