Steps to reproduce:

  • Go to new extensions shortcut reassigning UI (Manage Extension Shortcuts) from bug 1303384
  • Select a command to re-assign
  • Assign "Ctrl + Page Up"

Expected result:
Error is shown that a built-in command can not be used.

Actual result:
The tab is switched (that's the action of "Ctrl + Page Up/Page Down", at least on Linux) and the command is seemingly assigned that shortcut without any error message being shown.

Depends on: 1303384
Blocks: 1303384
No longer depends on: 1303384

I'm curious how that shortcut is registered, but it would be nice to handle this. Provided there are <key>s registered for them it should be fixable, but I would've expected this to work as expected if that's the case.

Priority: -- → P2

Perhaps it's not checking the "Page Up" key the right way.

That looks like the issue, thanks. It appears as though there is also a Ctrl+F4 shortcut to close the selected tab(s) when not on Mac that would need to be handled.

Note: Yes, Ctrl+F4 was reported here

This centralizes the checks for system shortcuts into ShortcutUtils.jsm, so
they can be checked for in the add-on shortcut assignment UI. It also
introduces a mechanism for skipping the system event handler if it is already
being handled by the shortcuts UI.
