The ability to re-bind any keyboard or mouse shortcuts is major accessibility issue that I think needs more attention (connect.mozilla.org)

The worst thing to me is not just that I can't change the browser defaults, but many actions can be overridden by websites. Like Ctrl+h opens my history on every single site. Except for Google Docs. Why!!! Don't let websites hijack standard hotkeys.

But I would also kill for customizable keyboard shortcuts in general. Especially if I can run custom JS from a shortcut.
