Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0

Steps to reproduce:

Use macOS settings to assign Ctrl+Cmd+Z to Window->Zoom. Visit web.whatsapp.com and link to your phone, etc.. Use Tools->Page Info to block the "Override keyboard shortcuts" permission. Select a chat, and with the insertion point in the "Type a message" box, type a few characters, then press Ctrl+Cmd+Z.

Actual results:

The "Window" menu flashes, as if the Zoom item has been chosen, but it undoes your typing (one character at a time).

Expected results:

It should have zoomed the window, in accordance with the keyboard shortcut, which should not be able to be overridden.

Note that overrides for Firefox's built-in keyboard shortcuts do seem to be effectively disabled, e.g. for Cmd+I and Cmd+K. But custom ones aren't.
