I think I implemented this in the updated patch, though I left out the support for downloads using 'alt-enter' on mac. I'm not convinced people want that behaviour, and in any case it'd re-introduce per-platform checks and some redundant calls to whereToOpenLink that I'm not super- fond of. Note that the spreadsheet doesn't cover shift-enter, which also canonifies today. I left that as-is, though of course that now also comes under the pref, and can therefore be turned off (at which point we'll open a new window instead). -- 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.
