> user configurable keyboard shortcuts
This is one of those things that's sorely missing for me. Firefox has keyboard shortcuts for most things I want to do in it, but they're often really inconvenient and I'd like to be able to change them to match those in other tools I often use.
Some other things I'd love to see in a browser:
- A command palette to make functionality & shortcuts more discoverable
- Fuzzy tab search and switcher
- Customizable split panes
On the whole I think browsers could benefit a lot by learning from UX patterns in modern editors like Atom/VSCode.
- rtpg 8y agocommand palettes are some of the most powerful new UI designs that I've seen in recent history. PyCharm + VS Code both are immediate go-to's for me because I know I'll be able to find a feature (and the keyboard shortcut!) super quickly when I need it. Huge wins for discoverability and usability.
- brumm 8y agoShameless plug: I built something similar[0] a while ago, maybe it's useful for you. By default it does fuzzy tab search, (multi) selection and closing. The new advanced mode[1] turns it into something more like Quicksilver, with object->action->optional-param command sequences. It's only on the Chrome extension marketplace, although it should be mostly compatible with Firefox.
