Research direction

Start at Preferences → Shortcuts and reproduce the change, termination, and restart sequence on Mint 21.2 with Pix 3.0.2. Trace how the shortcut setting is handled when the application exits and starts again; done means a changed shortcut remains available after restarting Pix.

And there is no "save shortcuts" button.
