Research direction
Reproduce the issue in Firefox 150.0.1 with Vimium 2.4.2: enable Ignore keyboard layout, switch to a non-English layout, and try F, d, and x. Trace the JavaScript handling for that option; it is done when those keys work under the non-English layout without breaking normal keyboard behavior.
