Summary
The web UI has shortcuts, with the biggest list on the builds page:
These shortcuts only appear to work on keyboards with a US layout. Non-US layout keyboards don't trigger the shortcuts at all.
Steps to Reproduce
Use a non-US layout keyboard and try to trigger the shortcuts on the build page.
Expected Results
Non-US layout keyboards should be able to use the shortcuts.
One question I do have; does it make sense for the vim-like shortcuts to work on non-US keyboards? I'd guess not since the key positions are completely off depending on the layout.
