For me, there are several use cases in my muscle memory for Chrome: e.g. * slight change to existing URL "https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=237027"; to "https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12345"; * open a bunch of variants quickly: "example.com/long-annoying-paginated-url?page=1", "example.com/long-annoying-paginated-url?page=2", "example.com/long-annoying-paginated-url?page=3" etc. -- many fewer keystrokes than copy, new tab, paste, then edit, then switch back to original tab and repeat. * reload the same page in a background tab -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66566 Title: Inconsistent shortcuts for new tab Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in firefox-3.0 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in firefox-3.5 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: There are currently too many shortcuts when opening a link in a new tab: - location bar: <ALT> + <ENTER> - GO button: <CTRL> + click - search bar: <CTRL> + <ENTER> - SEARCH button <ALT> + click - links: <SHIFT> + click - menu bar: <CTRL> + click - BACKWARD/FORWARD button: <CTRL> + click This is one of the reasons I'm keeping with Opera. There it is always the shift key and I have to remember only one key. Thanks for reading!
