Before submitting a bug report

• [X] I updated to the latest version of Multi-Account Container and tested if I can reproduce the issue
• [X] I searched for existing reports to see if it hasn't already been reported

Step to reproduce

"Select a container for each new tab" setting fails to work on Ctrl-T keyboard-shortcut; only works via mouseclick

Actual behavior

.

Expected behavior

It should work with Ctrl-T (not only with mouseclicking the "+" new-tab button.) Or, an option should be provided to give the SAME context-menu of "choose a container for this new tab" as happens when i click the "+" newtab button.

many thanks for all of this! love this addon.

If you don't mind my asking, what is blocking this from being looked at? Is it just developer time?

If you don't mind my asking, what is blocking this from being looked at? Is it just developer time?

Developer time is definitely part of it. Other blockers are:

• It needs to be implemented upstream (in Firefox itself) because we can't override builtin shortcuts from the addon. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1646985 for upstream bug.
• There might be a bit of UX/a11y work to do on how the user will interact with the menu. Currently, the option only opens the menu but doesn't select an item and there's no accelkey (the small underline under a letter of each of the items) so you can only use arrow keys to navigate the menu. This could probably be done in a separated bug tho.

If you can and want to contribute a patch, you can follow the guide to get a development environment ready https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/index.html.
