How to set default for "Override keyboard shortcuts"? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Today I noticed that in the Page Info --> Permissions tab (which you access through padlock --> Connection secure --> More information beside a page's URL) there is an Override keyboard shortcuts permission setting, with default set to "Allow". Interesting, because some sites use shortcuts that I'd rather avoid.

I checked the Settings, but I see no entry to set the default to "Block". Is there some entry in about:config for this?

Cheers!

i would guess this permissions.default.shortcuts

values:

ReservedKey_False = 0,   (default) 
ReservedKey_True = 1,
ReservedKey_Unset = 2,

going by the test files , i'd say you need to set the value to 2 to globally lock it.

Thank you so much, that did it!! I hope they'll put this option explicitly in the settings, in the future.
