    Description

      Using the uBlock Origin Firefox adblocker addon, keyboard shortcuts do not work and you get the following in the JS console:

      Loading failed for the <script> with source "http://localhost:9090/xwiki/webjars/wiki%3Axwiki/Keypress/2.1.5/keypress.js?r=1".
      Sandbox:1
      Error: Script error for "/xwiki/webjars/wiki%3Axwiki/Keypress/2.1.5/keypress.js?r=1"
      http://requirejs.org/docs/errors.html#scripterror
      require.min.js:7:290
      

      Checking the adblocker's blocking log, I get:

      17:14:41		/keypress.js$script	--	script	http://localhost:9090/xwiki/webjars/wiki%3Axwiki/Keypress/2.1.5/keypress.js?r=1
      

      Getting more details, I get:

      Static filter /keypress.js$script found in:
          EasyPrivacy
      

      So the official EasyPrivacy (an optional list, part of the most popular adblocking rules, EasyList) blocks keypress.js.

      This means that it's not necessarily only about Firefox or about a particular adblocker (replicated on Chrome with AdBlock, once I enabled the EasyPrivacy list).
