Bug#12911 is now fixed, so can this comment can be removed or updated maybe?

Comment 1

[Akkana Peck]

Bug 12911 is fixed but it's not clear how to actually use the fix (is anyone
actually using it?  Does it actually work?  It wasn't obvious to me looking
through the patches, because the reviewed patches seem to be relative to earlier
versions of the same code.)  I've asked in that bug.  If we don't get a
response, then I suppose we should change the keybinding page to refer to bug
201011 instead, though that bug is really waiting on a solution to the problem
in bug 12911.

The www.mozilla.org site should no longer host documentation.  If there is still a need for this it should be added to MDC.  Moving to Mozilla Developer Center product for discussion.
