Oh, you can also see the web browser behavior being discussed with the shell and nano implementation at https://humphd.github.io/browser-shell/ (though it looks like it's nano-tiny). Most browser shell implementations I've tried (Proxmox, cockpit, Google Cloud) function like this where the browser intercepts ^w and ^t (and some ^r) but other keystrokes pass through without issue.
