Description

In LibreWolf, when I press Alt+D to select the address bar, I instead scroll down as though I had pressed only D. This problem does not occur if I disable Vimium.

LibreWolf version: 136.0-2
Vimium version: 2.1.2

#75 is the only plausibly related issue I could find.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in LibreWolf 136.0-2 with Vimium 2.1.2 enabled and disabled, using Alt+D and observing whether the address bar is selected or the page scrolls. Compare the behavior with the context in issue #75; done means Alt+D selects the address bar without scrolling in the affected setup.
