I also have this problem. In previous versions of firefox, pgup/pgdown
caused scrolling (like a PDF), which makes a lot of intuitive sense to
me and which I relied on a lot. I don't care about the internal
formatting of the page, and if it has formatting tables, I shouldn't
need to know that to see the page. It's especially annoying near the end
of a text article -- when you get to the bottom of the text, if you try
to use the keyboard to go further it takes you to a "random" point
wherever the next formatting column starts. BBC, Slashdot, The Oil
Barrel, these all do the same thing.

I'm on a laptop, so without a scroll wheel I used PGUP/PGDN a lot to do
that sort of document movement. I was hoping this would be a simple
change in some about: page.
