Update keybinding for cloud gaming in the browser

[Vincent500]

I personally use Geforce now for clouding gaming. I have to use chrome for this however because Vivaldi's keybinding is creating conflicts. The following 2 issues are present:

1. A single escape press should not exit fullscreen. The escape key is often used in games to exit a command or go to a menu. Chrome solves this by requiring the escape key to be pressed for a longer period.
2. The quick mouse actions (like quick right left to go back a page) are also not disabled during gaming creating problems. Maybe a per site exception would be nice.

Without these 2 issues solved somehow, cloud gaming on Vivaldi does work.

@Vincent500 Disabling keyboard shortcuts and toggling mouse gestures are both commands that act as toggle. You can therefore set up a command chain with these commands. The command chain will act as a toggle for both. The only problem left to solve is how to toggle them, since keyboard shortcuts and mouse gestures will be disabled when you want to enable them. Gladly Vivaldi gives us the option to add any command chain as button to the UI by customizing the toolbars. I would add such a chain button to the address bar for easy access.

@luetage A shortcut such as Ctrl+Alt+K to disable keyboard shortcuts does not disable the Ctrl+Alt+K shortcut itself. You can still toggle the keyboard shortcuts back on again.

@Pesala This is a command chain and the shortcut won’t work once everything is disabled.

@luetage Didn't know that one. It is not ideal but workable I suppose.

That still leaves the full screen issue.

@Vincent500 Escape doesn’t exit Vivaldi fullscreen mode for me. Unless this is a page induced fullscreen, in which case it’s not an internal shortcut doing this. Can’t you use Vivaldi fullscreen instead? This fullscreens the current webpage.

@luetage I don't want to use vivaldi in full screen all the time. Then I can't see tabbars etc.

Geforce now indeed starts the fullscreen it self. Apparently chrome handles fullscreen slightly different which makes it workable out of the box.

We seriously need Site Settings for both website & browser keyboard shortcut & mouse gesture control. It's not just for gaming website but more & more website nowdays like to hijack & enforcing it's own set of shortcut is causing annoying problem.

@Vincent500 Well, not all the time. Use the shortcut and go fullscreen when you are in a game. The other option is to write a custom modification that triggers when you visit the site and listens for escape key presses, intercepts them and disables them internally.

How is using your shortcut any different from manually pressing F11 (which Geforce now basically does itself). Or am I missing a fullscreen feature of vivaldi?
