Hi, currently, webkit-gtk uses "alt" modifier as html accesskey. That causes some conflict with midori's accesskey menus. It would be nice to have an accesskey modifier for html content different from gtk menus modifiers (alt or ctrl). It would be nice to: a) have something else for an accesskey, less likely to conflict with application menu b) or even better, having a default accesskey, and a setting to change it c) or may be, a totally different way of dealing with accesskeys, such as described here: http://juicystudio.com/article/firefox2-accesskeys.php Reference: discussion about accesskeys for mac os x webkit: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7466

Created attachment 22843 [details] uses Alt-Shift instead of Alt I don't know webkit enough to be able to implement something like b) or c), but here is a trivial patch to use Alt-Shift (firefox default on unix).

This patch is not marked for review - did you want it to be reviewed? It's probably stale, as WebCore code changed since August.

Going to close this since it's almost certainly stale.
