Does not work properly with Finnish keyboard layout. I suppose it's because the AltGr key is technically left control + right alt and that messes with alt+ctrl shortcuts with this extension. If that's the case, then this extension doesn't read the virtual keycodes nor scan codes but the characters that the key presses produce. This hyphothesis is backed by the fact that the ctrl+alt+number shortcuts work on Finnish keyboard if the respecting AltGr+number combination does not produce a character.

Is Easy Container Shortcuts Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Easy Container Shortcuts requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
