Great.
Had to remove default Zen browser Ctrl+Shift+X shortcut in settings. Also if you click on gear icon in Manage Extensions settings page, you can choose Mange Extension Shortcuts. There you can change any extensions shortcut if it doesn't fit your preferences and to see which shortcuts are already taken by browsers shortcuts setting or intersect (conflict) with other extensions shortcuts.
Most of the long living, pinned and short living (during one session) tabs do not require any auth and thus container. I expected to be able set shortcut to open tab with out container. But this extension doesn't give such option. So my fallback was to unset workspaces default containers. Maybe it makes even more sens to use specific shortcut only when you need a specific container.

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.
