 ## Unreleased
 
+### Typing into a Bot's browser no longer triggers the app's own shortcuts
+
+While somebody drives a Bot's browser, every keystroke is sent to it. The app's shortcuts listen for
+keystrokes too, and they heard each one first, so typing a capital N into the Bot's browser, as in
+"New York", started a new chat and took the person away from the Bot mid-word, and Ctrl+B there
+also showed or hid the sidebar. A keystroke sent to the Bot's browser now reaches only the Bot's
+browser. Escape still closes the view, and the paste shortcut still pastes.
