Hi all,

I'm trying to paste plain text to the text box but ctrl-shift-v doesn't work and still paste as rich text. Tested same site on chrome on same distro - works as expected. No plugins is installed - totally fresh distro. (Found that adblock can block a shortcut, but it is not installed).

Tried to alter clipboard.plainTextOnly to true/false - also doesn't help.

Other shortcuts are working - tried `ctrl-shift-z` and `ctrl-shift-p`.

What can be wrong? Can you confirm this problem?

Distro: Fedora release 28 (Twenty Eight) Firefox version: 61.0.1 (64-bit)
