I know, but it still happens :-(

I don't use -esr, so it's firefox 138.0.4.
And I have to correct myself: it's not starting firefox that causes
the loss of the key bindings, but a specific web site.
It's my internet banking site, and it only happens after I login,
so I can't give you a a test page.

Probably the web page uses some JavaScript mechanism to claim the
keys from the window manager and doesn't give it back, or something
similar.

Does anybody know of a way to tell firefox not to allow such behaviour
of a web site?
