Could you file a separate issue, and we can work out if it's fixable there? IIRC there are some other subtleties with how search behaves (e.g. defaults for whether tabs open in the foreground or not when you use the page context menu to search are governed by a different pref to the one governing "normal" links opened in tabs). So I'm not sure off- hand how easy it would be to fix. Either way we usually try to fix 1 thing per bug to avoid confusion about what is/isn't fixed. So fixing the search bar, given that it's not using the same code as per your comment, will need to have its own bug. -- 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.
