CTRL + SHIFT + ([ or ]) does nothing on Linux |

Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.139 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open a new tab (CTRL + T) Call this Tab1 2. Open another new tab (CTRL + T) Call this Tab2 2. Hit CTRL + SHIFT + [ Should navigate to Tab1 (but does not) 3. Switch to Tab1 with the mouse 4. Hit CTRL + SHIFT + ] Should navigate to Tab2 (but does not) What is the expected behavior? If ] should move to the right 1 tab If [ should move to the left 1 tab This works on Mac with CMD + SHIFT ([ or ]) What went wrong? In order to achieve the equivalent action of moving to the left/right tabs, users must use CTRL + TAB (right) or CTRL + SHIFT + TAB (left). Also the Mac shortcut does not seem to be documented here: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/157179?hl=en Did this work before? No Chrome version: 66.0.3359.139 Channel: stable OS Version: Flash Version:

Able to reproduce the issue on Win-10 and Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome reported version #66.0.3359.139 and latest canary #68.0.3416.0. Issue is not seen in OS-mac using CMD + SHIFT ([ or ]). This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M60 old builds. Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team. Thanks...!!

We definitely wouldn't add this shortcut on non-Mac; I'm not sure it should exist on Mac either but not enough of an owner there to make a call (what does Safari do?). In general we'd like to have fewer shortcuts rather than more, since having more shortcuts makes it more difficult to add anything in the future, and makes it so that practically any key combo does _something_, increasing the chances of unintentional behavior. When there's already at least one shortcut for the behavior, we need to cross a very high bar for adding more. On Windows, other browsers I tested (Firefox, Edge) don't support this shortcut. ->ellyjones to decide if this is appropriate to keep on the Mac side.

This is weird - we actually have two sets of bindings for this. We have cmd-opt-{left,right}, which are the key equivalents for the Window > Select {Next,Previous} Tab options, and we have cmd-shift-{[,]}, which are handled via here: <https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/chrome/browser/global_keyboard_shortcuts_mac.mm?type=cs&q=CommandForWindowKeyboardShortcut&sq=package:chromium&l=130>.
thakis@, do you remember why we have these bindings for cmd-shift-[]? I'm somewhat inclined to do away with them.

Because they're mac system standard shortcuts that work in all mac apps that have tabs (safari, finder, terminal, maps, ...)

#5: alright, in that case we should definitely keep them :) #3: this bug is WontFix I think. |
