Details

Steps to reproduce:

Trying to find a place in menu or options where I am able to configure keyboard shortcuts

Actual results:

I have not found a way to configure keyboard shortcuts. Old (xul-based) Firefox version allowed this (with some small limitations) via extensions. In new non-xul-based firefox this is no longer possible (there are some extensions that try to do this but are very limited due to technical way those are implemented - they work only when a website is loaded in focused tab, etc ..)

Expected results:

All keyboard shortcuts should be configurable.

This would allow for fast navigation if you bind back/forward to a single key (z/x) or easier transition from different browser to firefox (if you are used to some shortcuts and firefox has different by default, you can reconfigure them). There are also many other situations where configurable keyboard shortcuts would help

Setting this enhancement as new so the engineering team could decide if they take in consideration changing this.
