Title: xdg-desktop-portal-kde wrongly launches System Settings when Chrome extension registers commands Summary: When launching Google Chrome (v139+) with the uBlock Origin Lite extension (updated 28 July 2025), KDE Plasma opens System Settings → Shortcuts unexpectedly. This is triggered by the extension’s use of the Manifest V3 commands API. Even though no global shortcuts are defined, KDE’s xdg-desktop-portal-kde responds to BindShortcuts with an unintended QDesktopServices::openUrl("kcm:keys") or equivalent. Steps to Reproduce: Install Chrome (v139+) under KDE Plasma (Debian 12) Install uBlock Origin Lite (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ddkjiahejlhfcafbddmgiahcphecmpfh) Launch Chrome with a fresh profile Observe System Settings open automatically Expected Behavior: Chrome should silently register shortcuts; System Settings must not open. Actual Behavior: KDE opens System Settings → Shortcuts pane every time Chrome launches with that extension active. Reproducible: Always
