The ALT key has long been bound to the file menu and the F10 key being bound is breaking a lot of functionality in a lot of things I both create and work with. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Press F10. Actual Results: Scripts must have F10 pressed twice and have no ability to prevent the event from being captured to the GUI. Expected Results: The F10 key should not be bound to the file menu, that is what the ALT keys are used for, both of them. The keyconfig extension can be found here... http://mozilla.dorando.at/

F10 is the standard Windows key for focusing the menubar - it should not be removed. The possibility of reconfiguring keyboard shortcuts is something else.
