An appeal to all website creators (and maybe to browser makers too) - *please* don't add "convenient" single-letter keyboard shortcuts to your websites. Someone, usually me, *will* accidentally trigger like five or seven of these at a time trying to type into something totally different, causing your website to freak *out* and do all sorts of interesting things. For instance, typing `git pull` into YouTube will cause the currently playing video to go into picture-in-picture mode, pause it, and fast-forward five or ten seconds.

@arraybolt3 I just did this with Mozilla Thunderbird. Funny I see this just now. I typed out something and triggered some unknown actions. I hope something didn't get deleted or something....
