How about forcing keyboard shortcuts that are impossible to disable?
The two biggest offenders of this are Google Groups (the new layout) and wired.com. Both have mappings for "H" (capital), which I use to go back a page (via Vimium).
However, they decide instead that this should hide all the content and leave me on the page.
In the case of Wired.com, it sends me to a random article.
Worse, Google Groups refuses to load at all if I disable Javascript, telling me I must activate Javascript in order just to load a mailing list archive.
I hate sites that intercept '/', which I normally use for searching text on a page. If I wanted to use your search function I'd click in the box. I'm looking at you, Gmail and Bitbucket!
