Now the "Alt-Shift-R" shortcut key is not responding. I've tried other shortcuts and they work fine.

Primarily got it to add a shortcut for un/pinning tabs. It does exactly what it says on the tin. Stars are removed, however, because you can't modify what shortcuts are used. That is a basic functionality of ANYTHING adding hotkeys. We NEED to be able to edit that, not only for personal preference/workflow, but also in case of conflicts.
