Vim normal mode: typing "{" enters "{}" instead of sending the command to Vim (French keyboard)

PS: a similar problem happens with the ^ command (start of line): on a French keyboard, typing a ^ is obtained by pressing the ^ key followed by a space (so as to indicate that no letter goes underneath). This works in vanilla Vim, but not in Obsidian’s Vim mode (where ^ is inserted even when starting in normal mode—Vim starts by doing this too, but then switches to beginning-of-line when following this with a space).
