In Firefox for Ubuntu, the Home key opens a new tab instead
In Firefox for Ubuntu v92.0, when focused on a pinned tab, the Home key opens the home page in a new tab instead. I tested with settings on "use home key url" and "use custom url", and it works the same way. Running on an HP Stream 14, system information attached.

Thank you.
I prolly forgot to say: While the extension is active: If I try to go to my Home page using the button while focused in a pinned tab, my home page instead opens up in a new tab. With the extension disabled, or in an unpinned tab, the Home button works as expected.
It's not a problem for me since I can use the back button to return Home. To make the point, it only affects pinned tabs. Your extension is exactly what I needed, and I view this issue more as an undocumented feature than a bug, but I thought you should be aware in case this dovetails with other issues, and it might point up an issue with the code. Or I could be wrong. YMMV
I fully intend to talk up this extension in the Ubuntu and Firefox forums I visit. Thank you for your efforts.
