I <i>just</i> found out about this through <a href="http://superuser.com/a/607514/228316">this answer on the Superuser StackExchange</a>.

I was confused by it saying it was for Seamonkey (which I've never used) rather than Firefox, but I installed it in Firefox anyway and it works!

I've tried to find a solution to this moronic bug a few times before, but always gave up in frustration, so this is pretty awesome. ^^

Btw, ctrl-esc mimic the "Windows key" in Windows, and alt-esc does... some weird variation on alt-tab? --so those particular hotkeys conflict (at least in Windows 7, which I'm on at the moment).

Anyway, ctrl-F11 and alt-F11 work as advertised, as do ctrl-T, ctrl-W, et(I assume)cetera.

Heh, now we're gonna start wanting a hotkey to put the focus back <i>on</i> Flash objects so we can eg ctrl-pgup to a Youtube tab, pause/play a video using spacebar, and then ctrl-T or ctrl-pgup/pgdown away. xD

Oh wait, ctrl-pgup/pgdown don't automatically escape from the Flash the way ctrl-T etc do...

Can we add that kind of thing to Focus Regainer's behavior ourselves through about:config, or...?

Actually, where <i>are</i> its entries under about:config? Searching for "extensions.focus" yields no results...?
