Hi DigitalOcean Team,
I use your built-in web console to manage my Droplets, frequently using the nano text editor. I'm running into an issue on ChromeOS where pressing Ctrl + / (the shortcut to "Go To Line" in nano) intercepts the system-level ChromeOS Help menu instead of passing through to the terminal.
Since full desktop environments (like VS Code) successfully trap this shortcut, it seems the web console listener just needs a default prevention step. Would it be possible for the console development team to add a standard e.preventDefault() block to the keydown listener specifically for ctrlKey + /?
This would prevent ChromeOS from opening its native help overlay and make the web console significantly more accessible for Chromebook users.
Thanks for your time and for building an awesome platform!
