At least on Windows, the access key used by History menu is same as the one used by Security filter in Console (S) which prevents the usage of History menu when focus is inside Console. This should be changed to something else.
Can you please check which key would be available? E is used for Edit, C for CSS. Is "u" available or some other letter?
U us the nearest free character starting from left. But we can also do Y which will be the last character (just like in the Clear button)

Hi Suyash,

Thank you for the patch. There are 2 things that need to be changed:

1) The idea here is to change the accesskey of the web console "Security" button and not the "History" menu's accesskeys.
2) When changing the value of the key, we have to change the name of the key too so that the localizers get to know of the change. What we usually do is to add a number at the end like changing "accesskey" to "accesskey2"

Sorry, will do that.

Sorry, but I am not sure about this, e.g. here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522886#c53

Am I still supposed to change the key name?

As said by :flod on #l10n, in case of accesskeys (not command keys) it's not really needed, since localizers have to deal with their own set of accesskeys and conflicts.

I am leaving it as is. If this needs change, please let me know.

Looks fine. I will run tests to confirm that it does not break any of them.

Can some real peer give it an r+ and then change the whiteboard to [land-in-fx-team] ?

Please see: 

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/XUL_Accesskey_FAQ_and_Policies

"Avoid letters with descenders, such as p, g, q, or y". Can we pick something else instead of "y"?

i and u are free on windows, no idea about Linux or Mac.

"Avoid letters that are only one pixel wide, such as i or l". "u" is available on Linux.

Okay, using "u".

Patch v3

Girish: please check that this is not taking over some command on Macs. On Linux it seems fine. Afaik, Ctrl-U is not used on Macs either.

will do.
Seems like Ctrl + U does not do anything and is free.
