So Ted you may have changed tthat yourself with keyconfig. Shift meaning the opposite: Ctrl+TAB is Next Tab, Ctr+Shift+TAB is Previous Tab kind of breaks down in this area but these are ALL built-in to Firefox. Ctrl+T is Open in New Tab. Ctrl+Shift+T is Undo Close Tab. Ctrl+W is Close Tab. Ctrl+Shift+W is Close Window. The documented shortcuts for "Duplicate Tab" extension are as follows Merge Windows Ctrl+Shift+M, Duplicate Tab to New Window Ctrl+Shift+N, Duplicate Tab (to New Tab) Ctrl+Shift+U Actually Ctrl+Shift+T is built-in to Firefox, nothing to do with Duplicate Tab.

While it's not documented, Cntrl+Shift+T executes a duplicate tab when using "Duplicate Tab". The documented key combo for that operation "Cntrl+Shift+U", which is nicer when using two hands.

Too bad we still need an (yet to be developed...) extension to be able to press for instance Ctrl+T (or Ctrl+Alt+Shift+T) to clone the tab without needing to Ctrl+drag... Anyone know if or when such an extension (or even core feature) is available? Hmm, great that this finally is possible in FF3.

Cant find anything related to this feature in Bugzilla. The duplicate tab extension is great, but i would really want to see this funcionality as default in Fx3. Merging windows would also be great.

Good to see some of the functionality of the extension available Firefox 3.
