Description
When I'm trying to add some video to the playlist, and I type 'free', it doesn't let me, as it's refreshing the page (probably on r keystroke).
I'm using: Version 1.53

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the YouTube playlist dropdown with Vimium version 1.53, then inspect the keyboard shortcut handling involved in the refresh triggered by the r key. Done means typing "free" in the dropdown no longer refreshes the page while Vimium hotkeys continue to work elsewhere.
