Looks like we need to handle this in the keydown handler as well (like tabbox does), instead of relying on <key>.

Comment on attachment 9027169 [details] Bug 1509488 - Use keydown handler instead of <key> for Shift+Ctrl+Tab. r=jaws [Beta/Release Uplift Approval Request] Feature/Bug causing the regression: unclear. This is relevant now because of bug 1473595, but I think the regression is older User impact if declined: Shift+Ctrl+Tab doesn't work consistently Is this code covered by automated tests?: Unknown Has the fix been verified in Nightly?: No Needs manual test from QE?: No If yes, steps to reproduce: List of other uplifts needed: None Risk to taking this patch: Low Why is the change risky/not risky? (and alternatives if risky): We're now handling Shift+Ctrl+Tab in the same event handler as Ctrl+Tab. Not really breaking new ground here. String changes made/needed:

> As mentioned in bug 1501699 many times, you need to open enough tabs for the tab bar to overflow. Thanks, I did not know that this particular bug is still about the All tabs panel, which I agree could reasonably only be in play when the tab bar overflows. (Not when pressing Ctrl+Shift+Tab though, but that that is another store better discussed in the original bug on the topic: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1384251#c4) Happy to see swift action in squashing this particular bug and uplifting it to 64, nice work!

Hi, I managed to reproduce this issue on Windows 10 Firefox Beta 64.0b13 but I can no longer reproduce it in Firefox 64.0b14 or the latest Nightly 65.0a1 (2018-11-28). I will mark it accordingly.
