Many <key>s in all products/projects still set an attribute 'xulkey', to various values like 'true', 'false', 'meta' or 'ctrl'. But LXR suggests that this attribute isn't used neither in any CSS nor is it processed by any backend code (anymore): <http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/search?string=xulkey>

Since having an unused/unsupported, undocumented attribute is quite confusing, it should be removed.
Sounds fine, if mconnor/neil are ok with it.

IIRC it predates M14 so it's long overdue for removal ;-)
Yeah, looks safe to kill!
