how to disable ALL firefox shortcut (Alt-F etc.) and restaure default shortcuts after.
With FireSSh, I would like to disable ALL shortcuts( bindkeys). I want to prevent Firefox to grab the Alt key (that opens Alt-F => Files, Alt-T-> Tools...), And even, any other bindkeys (Ctrl-W ...)
That should not change the default behaviour of Firefox for other windows or tabs. Customizing the Firefox bindkeys is not what I want, since it change it for all window/tabs. I suppose this feature exist, since when you oppend a pdf into a tab, some bindkeys are affected to something else. In particular, you cannot exit with Ctrl-W.
Any help is welcomed

In that case the keyboard shortcuts do not work because a plugin has focus and processes all key presses.
You can't disable the Alt key that way AFAIK.
So do you know how the plugin (I can ask the developper) has to do to permit the option to disable all focus/process of keys ?
You need to click with the mouse outside the plugin to make the keyboard work again. It is usually not possible to use the keyboard to achieve that.
I think we are not talking about the same thing. Thanks anyhow for your help. Regards,
