Dear Maintainer,

today I spent some time on investigating this issue, as
python-pytest-cov currently is unusable: Every key press makes the
browser window jump back to the top as *all* registered handlers fire
and the last one is "coverage.to_first_chunk" from "coverage_html.js".

<https://github.com/tzuryby/jquery.hotkeys/commit/321e02b98be973d1ea09eb97ceb921411ffb3415>
introduced an incompatible ABI change how events are registered:

jeresig <https://github.com/jeresig/jquery.hotkeys>:
  $(...).bind('keydown', 'j', function (e) {...})

tzuryby <https://github.com/tzuryby/jquery.hotkeys>:
  $(...).bind('keydown.j', function (e) {...})

So "coverage_html.js" uses the 'jeresig' API to pass the hotkey via
"data", while the 'tzuryby' API "jquery.hotkeys.js" expects is via
'namespace'.

libjs-jquery-hotkeys currently is used by 3 packages in Debian:
- libghc-gitit-data
- prometheus
- python-pytest-cov

Doing some source code `grep -n -r "[.]bind([\"']key"`:

gitit-0.10.4/data/templates/expire.st:5:     \$(document).bind("keydown", "ctrl+r", function() {
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/tests/farm/html/src/htmlcov/coverage_html.js:12:                $(document).bind('keydown', c.substr(9), function () {
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/tests/farm/html/src/htmlcov/coverage_html.js:119:        .bind('keydown', 'j', coverage.to_next_chunk_nicely)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/tests/farm/html/src/htmlcov/coverage_html.js:120:        .bind('keydown', 'k', coverage.to_prev_chunk_nicely)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/tests/farm/html/src/htmlcov/coverage_html.js:121:        .bind('keydown', '0', coverage.to_top)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/tests/farm/html/src/htmlcov/coverage_html.js:122:        .bind('keydown', '1', coverage.to_first_chunk)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/coverage/htmlfiles/coverage_html.js:12:                $(document).bind('keydown', c.substr(9), function () {
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/coverage/htmlfiles/coverage_html.js:119:        .bind('keydown', 'j', coverage.to_next_chunk_nicely)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/coverage/htmlfiles/coverage_html.js:120:        .bind('keydown', 'k', coverage.to_prev_chunk_nicely)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/coverage/htmlfiles/coverage_html.js:121:        .bind('keydown', '0', coverage.to_top)
python-coverage-3.7.1+dfsg.1/coverage/htmlfiles/coverage_html.js:122:        .bind('keydown', '1', coverage.to_first_chunk)
prometheus-1.5.2+ds/web/ui/static/js/graph.js:97:  self.insertMetric.bind("keydown", "return", function(e) {

So all of them use the "jeresig" API, but 'libjs-jquery-hotkeys'
packages the "tzuryby" API.

Please switch to the "jeresig" jeresig as all current users in Debian
expect that.
