Can we try to fix this soonish? Is it hard? I'm creating dozens of contacts every day for my work in a growing enterprise (MZLA Thunderbird), and not having this shortcut really slows me down and forces me into unnecessary mouse moves and clicks, which fosters Repetitive Strain Injury Syndrom! For keyboard-only users with screen readers, it now takes as many as 5 keypresses going through nested menus for a trivial everyday action like creating a new contact. The only way is going through file menu, not exactly intuitive: Alt+F > N > C > C > Enter File > New > skip [Chat Account] > Address Book Contact
