In Firefox shift delete is used to remove entries from the dropdown, it's unfortunate that it clashes with cut and there's no simple fix for that, without breaking everyone using shift+del to remove entries. I think long term we should move destructive operations to the contextual menu, then we could evaluate changing the shortcut and advertize it through the menu itself.
