Netscape Communicator uses CTRL+O. Internet Explorer uses CTRL+L. Mozilla used CTRL+L. It was fine. Then it was changed to CTRL+SHIFT+L. Where did that SHIFT came from anyway? I don't like it at all, I use CTRL+L and +O all the time, now I have one more diferent shortcut? It was supposed to be a shortcut, but it's becoming a long road. Why it changed? Can it change back? Can that be an user option? Marcos.

Summary: CTRL+?SHIFT?+L to open location? → CTRL+SHIFT+L to open location; (switch back to accel-L?)
ctrl+l goes to the address bar. I think we should probably map ctrl+l to open location if address bar is hidden. But this bug is a dupe.
Whiteboard: DUPEME
When you type an address in the location bar, it get's logged, in the location bar's pulldown menu. I use CTRL+L to avoid log the site there, I only type in the location bar sites that are most used. That's my main use of the open location dialog. Since open location dialog is a very very old feature, and "shortcut to location bar" is new, give it a new shortcut, CTRL+SHIFT+L, or something else, but don't change and old behavior. That's my opinion.
please don't comment here since when it gets duped [i have to go to class so i can't dig for the dupe] your comments will be lost =). The urlbar widget is now used in both and relies on history, so what you're trying to do won't work at all :)
