What happened to Ctrl-Tab for switching tabs?

Feedback Type:  Troubleshooting Report

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

In earlier versions of Firefox (pre 1.5, like 1.0.7) the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl-Tab" would switch tabs, but now the only shortcut I can find to do it is Ctrl-Page Up" and "Ctrl-Page Down". What happened to the "Ctrl-Tab" shortcut? Is there a way to get it back?

You can also use Ctrl-Cmd-Right, Ctrl-Cmd-Left to cycle. Or use Cmd-1 for the first tab, Cmd-2 for the second tab, etc.

Thanks for the pointer. However, that extension is not compatible with 1.5rc1 yet.
