I for one don't like default actions being taken away from me. I use ^N ^T and ^W constantly, and a page taking them away from me would be extremely annoying.

If the page you were using was an editor using emacs keybindings, you may be very annoyed that chrome is the only browser that those keybindings don't work in.

what makes this even more annoying is that chrome makes it easy to create an application shortcut, so you can have a window that is just an online editor: so awesome! but it can't work with your keybindings! how do they say: oh snap!

so close, yet so far away.

I'll switch them up to ^shift-n, etc tonight Thanks for the feedback
Wouldn't that conflict with "New Incognito Window"?
Any reason not to keep the old ones as well?
