Description
Hi,
I use notes a lot, and I often accidentally change a note by pressing CTRL+L.
I would like to use this shortcut to get to the address bar of my browser (Firefox), like on all other websites.
(See Focus Address Bar here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly#w_miscellaneous_2)
Instead, I add an unordered list to my current note, which most of the time is not what I intended to do.
It is easy to revert, but still a bit annoying.
Could you make the shortcut configurable? Or disable it?
Thank you
Andreas

Research direction
Start by locating the shortcut handling for toggleUnorderedList and reproduce the CTRL+L/Cmd+L behavior in Firefox. Check how editor shortcuts are registered and whether existing configuration or tests cover them; done means the browser address-bar shortcut is no longer unexpectedly replaced, with the requested configurability or disablement resolved.
