Hello, I'm using a bluetooth keyboard and noticed that classic keyboard shortcuts are not working with Firefox for Android. This is a major shortcoming, with Chrome you can use the same shortcuts available on the desktop version, it would be nice to have a comparable feature on Firefox for Android too.

Hardware keyboards are a usefull addition for tablets and the latest 'sexy' keyboard folio iterations like the one available for the Google Nexus 9 are practical and desiderable. Please add this enhancement soon!

Thanks!

hello, this is a primarily community-run support forum so it's probably not the right place to request features (we cannot implement any features & devs won't read here). please either use https://input.mozilla.org/feedback for general feedback or if you feel that it's a missing feature in the browser file a bug at bugzilla.mozilla.org.
