New issue 17218 by flyingtabmow: Shortcut Key Combination for Full Screen
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=17218

Chrome Version       : 3.0.195
OS version               : 10.6

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Click on the View menu
2.  Look at shortcut combination for "Full Screen"

What is the expected result?
Command + Option (or Shift) + F

What happens instead?
Command + F11.  No program on the Mac uses Command + a function key
as a shortcut.  While Firefox uses F11 for full screen, there is no reason  
to
copy this behavior for Chrome, since the exact same shortcut sequence
can't be used anyway (Exposé interference) and this defies conventions
established by other applications with a full screen option.  Furthermore
Command + F11 can't be typed with one hand.  A more natural
combination would be Command + Option + F (used for example in
iPhoto), as this mimics behavior in other common applications on the Mac
OS.
