option + shift + arrow now switches tabs since v.127

[palo]

Hi, since upgrading to Firefox v127 on my Mac, pressing option+shift+[right or left] switches to previous/next tab. This is quite bothersome, because I use this shortcut OS-wide for selecting entire words (see Mac keyboard shortcut reference https://support.apple.com/en-us/102650). Could this function be removed? Command+option+arrow is enough for switching tabs. Thx!

Just noticed this myself within minutes of updating, and now editing things in textareas is basically unusable for me. I've been frantically searching for settings to undo this. (FWIW I typically use the common Cmd-Shift-[ and Cmd-Shift-] shortcuts to switch tabs.)

I filed a bug report, for what it's worth. It seems untenable that there would now be no way to select text one word at a time.

Apparently this is due to an unrelated change in the Tree Style Tabs plugin, and is not the fault of Firefox itself in the least: https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab/issues/3575
