Keyboard accessibility on the web is fraught and overdue for more attention from standards committees IMO. It's another thing pushing people toward Electron instead of sticking with standard web platform. Relying on modifier keys has too much risk of colliding with browser or OS behavior.
The most sophisticated approaches I've seen opt for a modifier-less multi-key "chord" approach, e.g. GMail/Fastmail web UIs.
