Details

Steps: 1. Open example.com in a new tab 2. Open the new debugger in the devtools toolbox 3. Hit ctrl-f 4. Note that the content window search bar has opened and you are now focusing the content window. 5. Hit ctrl-p (as if you realized that is the debugger search keyboard shortcut) 6. Trigger content window print dialog instead of debugger toolbox The annoying part is the debugger *does* use ctrl-f, but only if you have a file opened. I think changing focus based on the mode of the debugger is quite confusing from a UX perspective. Ideally I think the debugger should always capture ctrl-f if it uses it sometimes. If you're not in the right mode it should display "select a file or use ctrl-p to search file names" or something.
