Hi

I just want to disable the F10 hotkey as I use it in other applications, and when firefox isnt in focus, it opens up a new window and its really annoying. I also couldnt find anything about it in about:config

F10 is the key that normally opens the context menu in Firefox (F10: context menu; F11: full screen; F12: developer tools). When Firefox doesn't have focus then it shouldn't process key presses. Isn't that working for you ?
