Bug Description

On MARC Edit view, pressing SHIFT F8 can add or remove tag 008. (The cursor needs to be in the MARC table.) But sometimes it may move back to OPAC view without a prompt of unsaved data.

I can not figure out a pattern. But for most of time during my testing, the first two times of pressing work. On a third time, the screen will switch back to OPAC View. For most of the time there is no prompt of unsaved data. But I did see the prompt a couple of times.

I'm seeing this on 3.3 using Chrome on a MacBook Pro.

My recent fix for lp1538678 gives the unsaved data prompt consistently, however I'm encountering a similar pattern as described above. The first attempt if done while the 008 field is selected will remove it, and prompt to leave the page. If I have any field below if selected when pressing Shift+F8, it will disappear and reappear with different data. When the 008 field is gone, sometimes when pressing Shift+F8, absolutely nothing will happen. My guess is that the MARC Edit UI is fighting over the regular Evergreen UI for priority over the Shift+F8 shortcut - Retrieving the last record(as defined in the default keyset) vs. Adding/Removing 008(hardcoded in staff/cat/marcedit.js).
