Found a solution to the problem. There is a “find_in_files/find in files” shortcut which is Ctrl+Alt+F by default. If I’m not mistaken this should only be triggered in the find_in_files panel’s context, however this seem to be activated in both the editor and the interactive console because if I change this shortcut to something different, the ‘[’ works fine with HU layout.
