In my forum system, the user can hit alt-s after typing a post, which the page catches and automatically submits the form. When you put the History menu in, with the 's' hotkey, it catches the keystroke that the page normally caught.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. (Assuming an account on the forum) Reply to a topic.
2. Type a message
3. Press alt-s

Actual Results:  
The History menu opens up

Expected Results:  
The form submits

The page's keyboard captures maybe should be caught before menu shortcuts.
