Is there an easy way to use the default jupyter notebook shortcuts instead of the ones that come as default in colab?

It also appears that hotkeys don't distinguish whether a cell is active or not, which makes the use of simple hotkeys (e.g. 'b'-> insert cell after) impossible.

Any suggestions as to how this can be overcome, or will we have to get used to (slightly) different shortcuts?
