FWIW why don't you use an external program to define your own hotkeys which will feed the standard ones to Chrome? There are several such apps for Windows for the exact reason that most programs don't offer built-in keyboard customization.

I want this functionality "out of the box" like in Opera and Vivaldi =D

Well, Vivaldi browser is a bad example because its implementation breaks all sites that define their own hotkeys overriding built-in ones so advanced text editors like Office online or CodeMirror/Ace can't intercept Ctrl-S, for example, as well as many other hotkeys. I don't know about Opera browser behavior though.

Marking this issue as untriaged, as it seems to be a feature request.

Thanks...!!

Well, Chrome browser is also a bad example ;)
For example (Ctrl+K when composing email in Gmail is not working): http://jpegshare.net/60/54/6054b4679407e5cd4cf7d692f3357ffa.png.html

If any shortcut key does not work on the website, then it is the problem of the person who assigned these shortcuts in your browser.

This example is inapplicable because the shortcut shown on the screenshot is not a browser shortcut. However I agree, currently Chrome's keyboard shortcut handling for extensions is very far from being ideal, if not exactly bad: it'd be much more user-friendly to expose these shortcuts somehow (maybe on mouse hover over the toolbar icons, or maybe an additional icon in the omnibox a-la the one that's shown when a popup is blocked). FWIW in Vivaldi extension keyboard shortcuts don't work at all, which only confirms my point of it being a bad example.

Those keyboard shortcuts that are not convenient for me — those keyboard shortcuts that I would replace them with:
New tab: Ctrl+T – Ctrl+↑
Close tab: Ctrl+W – Ctrl+↓
Exit: Ctrl+Shift+Q – Alt+Q
Find in page: Ctrl+F – Alt+/
Jump to the address bar (omnibox): F6, Ctrl+L or Alt+D – F8
New incognito window: Ctrl+Shift+N – Ctrl+Shift+P
Reopen closed tab: Ctrl+Shift+T – Ctrl+Comma
Show/hide bookmarks bar: Ctrl+Shift+B – Ctrl+B
Go to home page: Alt+Home – Ctrl+Space
Go back: Alt+← – Ctrl+← or Backspace
Go forward: Alt+→ – Ctrl+→ or Shift+Backspace
Zoom in: Ctrl++ or Ctrl+Num plus – + or Num plus (without modifiers)
Zoom out: Ctrl+- or Ctrl+Num minus – - or Num minus (without modifiers)
Reset zoom to 100%: Ctrl+0 or Ctrl+Num 0 – 0 or Num 0 (without modifiers)

All this I can easily do in the Opera, but not in Chrome =(

Bumping with sarcastic steps to reproduce.
1. Have unusually large fingers.
2. Attempt to press Escape while watching Youtube.
3. Press F1 at the same time, opening the help menu.
4. Try not to curse.
5. Curse every time.
6. Repeat to step 5 until posting to a help forum.
7. Get told by a help forum "Expert" to buy a "Learning Keyboard"
8. Succeed in not feeding him insults in the help forum.
9. Explain why the options he provided are unreasonable.
10.Recive link to a buried chromium forum with link from the suddenly helpful "Expert"
11.Post sarcastic bump the thread that goes as follows [snipped for Droste Effect expansion]

Is there any timeline on this? Is there even anyone reading these comments?

There are issues going back 10 years asking for this:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=896

This seems like it should be fairly straightforward to implement, especially since other browsers based on Chromium already have this feature...

This feature also would garner Google some much-needed good press, since it can be marketed as an "accessibility improvement" for handicapped/disabled people. I know Google loves its virtue signalling, after all.
