Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 295095

(Toolkit :: Downloads API, defect)

Description

[David Betz]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050523 Firefox/1.0+

Deer Park Alpha 1 has a CTRL-E for "New Download", this shortcut is already used
for the extremely widely used Web Developer bar for Editing CSS.  When our
developers are hitting CTRL-SHIFT-E, we expect it to load the edit css sidebar,
but you are overriding this widely used shortcut.  This is sooo not cool.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go anywhere with the web developer bar installed
2. Hit Ctrl-Shift-E
3.

Actual Results:  
New Download dialog shows

Expected Results:  
Your thing should not show...because you should not be using that shortcut.

Please stop using that shortcut, tens of thousands of developers are used to
ctrl-shift-e to edit their CSS.  If you keep changing stuff, you will get the
reputation of Microsoft.

This was a regression on the trunk, and has since been fixed. Deer Park Alpha
hasn't yet been released. There's no need to start making accusations.

Accusations need to be made to preimp any further damage, any alteration to this
view is your own personal belief and need not be pressed onto other people.

Thanks for updating this.  I can see this bug has been fixed.  I'm glad I
reported it.
