Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

The "c" key in the Dvorak keyboard layout is in the position of the "i" key in the QWERTY layout. For some reason when I use a Dvorak layout and press CMD-C, it sends a CMD-I shortcut to Hoppscotch and resets the request. Other shortcuts work as expected.

Maybe this should be filed as a separate bug, but resetting a request cannot be undone, meaning that I lose all my work if I forget about this bug and try to copy some text. If it is difficult to implement undo for this action, I suggest this shortcut be removed since it's such a footgun.

Steps to reproduce

Use a Dvorak layout (on Mac OS)
Select some text in the body of a request
Press CMD-C

I've tested this in Firefox, Chrome, and the PWA, but not in other operating systems.

Environment

Production
