### Bug description
Hello! I love Phanpy, thanks for all the excellent work on it.
I use browser keyboard shortcuts like ⌘2 (Cmd-2) to switch to a second tab, for example. This has been unexpectedly registering as a Phanpy shortcut to go to my second tab. (I have Phanpy set up with the tab/menu bar, with Home in the first tab and a list in the second tab). Pressing just `2` on its own in Phanpy takes me to the list (which is really nice), but I believe Cmd-2 shouldn't register as the same shortcut.
### To reproduce
1. Set up Phanpy with the tab/menu bar view with at least two tabs
2. Open at least two tabs in your browser
3. While on Phanpy, press Cmd-2 (for example) to jump to another browser tab
4. See the Phanpy tab name change, as it's switched to the second Phanpy tab view
### Expected behavior
Expected Phanpy to stay on the current view when I switch to another browser tab.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Phanpy's tab/menu bar view with at least two browser tabs and two Phanpy tabs, using Cmd-2. Inspect the keyboard shortcut handling entry point and verify modifier-assisted browser shortcuts are ignored while the unmodified number shortcut still works. Done means switching browser tabs no longer changes the Phanpy view, without breaking the existing number shortcut.
