This is a Firefox specific restriction, and doesn't happen onChromium (Google Chrome). Steps to reproduce:

1. Install any extension with commands, for example [Reopen closed tab Button™](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/reopen-closed-tab-button/jjchodckpgecejjbbdedboikbidieebe/related). It reopens most recently closed tab.
2. Go to chrome://extensions/shortcuts
3. Set keyboard shortcut Ctrl-Shift-L for Reopen closed tab Button™.
4. Open http://example.com/ in the current tab.
5. Hit Ctrl-Shift-L to confirm the effectivity of the shortcut.
6 Hit Ctrl-Shift-J to open the web console.
7. Run a script: addEventListener('keydown', e => { e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault(); }, true); with the console.
8. Hit Ctrl-Shift-L.

Then the command is invoked and most recently closed tab is restored for me.
