Yes, also there's been a bug in comment textfields for at least 3 years: press enter twice in a row and the cursor won't move to the next line.

Same problems in Jira: Start typing a comment, and it watches the issue or change issue, because keyboard navigation isn’t disabled while in a field.

But press Cmd+K to reach the address bar, or Cmd+W to close the tab: Nothing happens because Jira hijacks the keyboard.

It’s the big site challenge: Wreck the user experience and watch people who keep using it because they have to.
