Yeah - I don't think we want UI, but if we're going to do different things per-OS we might as well implement-via-hidden-pref than hardcode the OS distinctions. There's plenty of precedent for that, e.g. backspace-for-history.back being a hidden pref (browser.backspace_action) that's different on Linux vs. elsewhere. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66566 Title: Inconsistent shortcuts for new tab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/66566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
