Contenteditable Keyboard shortcuts

[Mark Jarecki]

Hi there,

I'm wondering if, or when, contenteditable=true will have a keyboard
shortcut available, natively in Firefox 3 - 3.5, to italicise or bold
text? As it does in Safari and Opera in OS X.

When i use contenteditable=true on a DIV in Safari or Opera and press
the Apple + 'b' — or Apple + 'i' — keys I can bold or italicise
selected text or the text following the cursor.

Of course, when pressing the Apple + 'b' keys currently, Firefox opens
Bookmarks. But using Ctrl + 'b' could suffice, or even right clicking
and selecting from a context menu.

Is there any chance of keyboard shortcuts being included in the near
future?

Cheers,

Mark
