What were you doing?

  1. Go to a website that uses WebSockets (e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/)
  2. Open the Network Monitor
  3. Reload the page
  4. Select the WebSocket request
  5. In the sidebar, click on one of the messages
  6. Press F5

What happened?

Nothing.

What should have happened?

The website should reload.

Anything else we should know?

None of the default shortcuts like Ctrl + R to reload the side, Ctrl + W to close the tab or F12 to close the DevTools work when the message list has focus.

This issue only affects the message list. The rest of the UI like the filter field above it or the details view for a message don't affect the shortcuts.

Yes, removing the evt.preventDefault(); call fixes the problem.
