	~~==Good~~ solution for AccessKeys conflicts in Mozilla/Firefox==		Here is a good solution for AccessKeys conflicts in Mozilla/Firefox.

	We can solve '''all''' conflicts related to accesskeys in a the same way, as [http://www.konqueror.org/features/browser.php Konqueror] developers [http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/675 did]. In order to activate accesskey 'P' you don't press Ctrl-P/Alt-P/etc. Instead you can press Ctrl,P, i.e. you '''press and release''' Ctrl key and '''then''' press 'P'. This way is '''much''' more desirable, than blocking an accesskey or allowing a web page to block browser shortcuts (like "Print" or "Preferences" for above combinations). When user presses and releases Ctrl key we can also display accesskeys near each link (i.e. tooltips) and give list of accesskeys in a status bar. If user don't want to choose any accesskey he can press Ctrl key again or just press any key which is not defined in a current page as accesskey.
