I assume this is just an unimplemented feature as of yet, but I figured I'd report it just in case it is.
Cant use keyboard for navigation (i.e. i usually use alt+<- for back and alt+-> for forward etc.)
Setting all current Open/Normal to M4.
per leger, assigning QA contacts to all open bugs without QA contacts according
to list at http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Browser
QA Contact: 4015 → 4130
QA contact re-assigned to UI Navigation owner.

This is a hotkey/accelerator thing.  Chris, I believe you owned this last.
QA Contact: 4130 → 4137
setting QAC to correct owner and adding myself to cc list

Actually Steve Dagley is officially handling keybinding these days
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
The KeyBind manager is checked in but there are some issues with the event model
on Windows that are blocking its use.  Pushing this bug back to M5.
Target Milestone: M4 → M5
Target Milestone: M5 → M6
Pushing back to M6 when we expect the blocking issues to be resolved
Target Milestone: M6 → M8
Key binding is now an M8 task

Keybinding is in, so I'm tossing this over the wall to XPApps.

Fire in the hole don!

Isn't bug #12654 a duplicate of this? Just a Guess.

Move to M14.
No longer blocks: 10575
We need to scope the amount of work we're doing for beta 1.

Basic keyboard navigation (cut, copy, paste, new, new message, etc.) should work 
for beta.  Setting beta-1 keyword
Keywords: beta1
pdt would like to know which keyboard navigation features do not work
PDT needs more info please.
QA Contact: cpratt → paulmac
Whiteboard: [NEED INFO]
Sairuh, can you give pdt team quick rundown on this or just point team to the 
doc you made a little while back?
QA Contact: paulmac → sairuh
good place to look at now is bug 22529.
Depends on: 22529
wait a sec --i can add that doc as an attachment...which am gonna do right
now...
PDT says we would like product marketing to review and make recommendation for 
whether or not this should be a beta1 PDT+.  Thanks.  We can look at this on 
Wednesday at the PDT if the review is done by then.  Thanks.
Looking at Sairuh's doc, I think the only thing left that I'd want for beta is 
cut to work.  I can live with everything else.
Putting on PDT+ radar for cut only.
Whiteboard: [NEED INFO] → [PDT+]
Cut meaning type ^X when the focus is in the urlbar or in a text field/area
inside the content window, right?  Well, that works now (subject to various
focus bugs which saari and hyatt are working on).

If that's the only issue, then this bug should be marked PDT+ or closed.  I'm
not closing it because I'm not clear whether it covers the other accelerators
which aren't hooked in the browser, e.g. ^F for find.

Removing PDT designation to get on radar to see if this was really the only PDT+
issue.
Whiteboard: [PDT+] → cut is already working
We're marking this - because cut is fixed.

per Don, marking this fixed. Sounds like any remaining issues should be separate
