ShortcutAttribute does not work when in Play mode and the Game view is selected
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached "Shortcut.zip" project
2. Press Alt+N and notice that a message gets logged in the console
3. Enter Play mode, select the Game view and press Alt+N again
Expected results: A message gets logged in the console
Actual results: The shortcut does not work and no message is logged
Reproducible with: 2019.1.4f1, 2019.2.0b4, 2019.3.0a4
Note: Couldn't test with 2018.4 stream, 2019.1.0a1 - 2019.1.0a4 version due to "ShortcutAttribute is inaccessible due to its protection level" error

Resolution Note (2019.3.X):
Currently the Shortcut Manager does not allow Global shortcuts (no context) to execute if the Game View is selected while Playing and NOT paused. This is to guarantee old behavior.
MenuItem shortcuts, however, always execute; this being the only potential workaround I can see at the moment. https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/MenuItem.html
