Copy current tab URL

[zlnk]

I've been using arc browser as an alternative to FF, and they have a really helpful feature that is a keyboard shortcut to copy the current page link without losing focus from the page and no need of changing your flow.

I've been looking for alternatives, and the closer I found is to execute command +  L and command + C, but even if I don't need to touch the mouse or tab key to copy the link, I lose focus and is not the best experience.

Another nice detail on this functionality is when you use their shortcut (shift + command + C), they remove all trackers from the URL

@igorlogiusHow do you set up custom keyboard shortcuts? I can't find the settings for that anywhere.

Add my vote to this feature. Copy Tabs looks nice but I don't think you can set a Cmd+ Shift + C to a Firefox extension.

Yeah, sadly at the moment you can't overwrite some specific built-in shortcuts.

but AFAIK, there is already an issue here on connect change this,  so maybe this will be possible in the future. In the meantime, you can still use almost every other key combination and function keys.
