How to disable menu popping up when I press ALT + T ?

I want to assign Alt + T for some extension. I set ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses to false but it isn't enough. When I press Alt + T the Tools section in menu pops up! Absolutely annoying.

You will have to use another keyboard access key "Alt+Ctrl+T" or use a different Firefox locale that doesn't use "T" as "Alt+T" is used for opening the Tools menu. Note that "Alt+Shift+X" keyboard shortcuts are reserved for access keys used by webpages like "Alt+Shift+S" to submit a reply form. Changing the modifier key for UI access isn't recommended as this can lead to other issues (conflicts).
