On Linux and Mac there is a keyboard shortcut for Page Info: Linux: ctrl + I Mac: cmd + I but there is no kindred shortcut for Windows, one is forced to use a mouse. An extension should not be necessary for basic accessibility functionality.

I agree that a keyboard command for opening Page Info on Windows versions of Firefox should be standard, but sadly {Ctrl + I} has always opened the bookmarks sidebar, which cam also be opened with {Ctrl + B}.

I have been using the Page Info button extension to add that feature to Firefox since Firefox 1.0.

Thanks Ed, I know that an extension will work, but sometimes extensions cannot be used for one reason or another. A built-in keyboard shortcut is needed for Windows versions so the browser remains cross-platform compatible and comports with accessibility guidelines.
