So lots of things that Cocoa apps get for free (like the ability to have its shortcuts overridden via System Preferences) they have to implement manually. This is also expressed in the rest of its UI, which often behaves just slightly differently from "true" macOS apps (e.g. kilianmuster.com/firefox-the-good-bad-and-ugly ). It's gotten much better over the years though. | |
