Why not make it the default that 99% of all browser special keys (Ctrl+1-9, ...) are NOT passed to the plugin, unless the plugin is in a special list of plugins?
Or even better something like this:

plugin.pass_keystrokes_to_plugins boolean default=true
plugin.keystroke_plugin_exclusion_list string

If pass_keystrokes_to_plugins==true, then keystroke_plugin_exclusion_list is a list of plugins not to pass keys to.
If pass_keystrokes_to_plugins==false, then keystroke_plugin_exclusion_list is a list of plugins to pass keys to.

Would a clean patch implementing this be accepted into mainstream?
