== Summary ==
When a plugin is focused (typically Flash), it will steal keyboard shortcuts, so you can't do thing like open a new tab or close the tab without unfocusing the plugin container. We should give plugins the ability to pass through shortcuts to the browser.
== Team ==
Who's working on this?
* '''Feature Manager''': Alex Limi
* '''Lead Developer''': Josh Aas
* '''QA''': Andrei (irc: AndreiD)
* '''UX''': Alex Limi
== Release Requirements ==
* Being able to play a Flash video and open/close a tabs with keyboard shortcuts on all platforms.
== Next Steps ==
* Patch review
* QA
== Open Issues ==
* I'd like to make sure that if the developer of the plugin content hasn't explicitly said that they'll override Ctrl/Cmd-qualified shortcuts, they'll be passed through by default.
