Using the shortcut Ctrl+k to summon the search bar sometimes gets hijacked by the browser

Title says it all. When using the shortcut Ctrl+k, the search bar does not pop up intermittently, and instead the browser's native "search in address bar" functionality is triggered instead.

I think this has to do with focus, because Ctrl+TAB'ing away from a docs page and then navigating back reliably reproduces the behavior.

From a cursory look, it appears that not much can be done besides e.preventDefault(), which seems to already be done here:

urbit.org/pages/_app.js

Lines 36 to 40 in 2f5f81a

	const toggleSearch = (event) => {
	if (event?.preventDefault) {
	event.preventDefault();
	}
	setSearch((state) => !state);

More or less. If you want Maximum App Feel we can do what Landscape does and implement a global hotkey.

So, we actually do use global hotkeys — this library. As for this:

Again, can't reproduce this on Safari on Mac. It always opens Search reliably. Is this Firefox specific behaviour?
