I have played with the 2.7 beta in my xp64 install and it is nice.
It works well and the antitab choice I found in about:config eliminated
all but the context menu thing which is in my eyes, and admitedly
possibiliy only my eyes, a glitch.

I had hoped it would take care of that as well.
I use the context menu to open new windows A LOT!, and I am not the best
keyboard person on the planet, I miss.

I don't use firefox, the layout is far more dificul for me.
It is to IE to my eyes, and I admit it might just be me.
I will however look it up.
I had to modify the bruceclay one to make it work in SM.
Perhaps I can do the same for the context editor.
