Details

Feature, for the record: It would be nice to have mnemonics for the Account Wizard button (i.e. Back, Next, Cancel and Finish). This would make it easier to navigate through the dialogs without a mouse. Expected Results - The Account Setup Spec should be updated to mention mnemonics for the Account Wizard buttons. - The buttons should have mnemonics enabled

Account Wizard Spec should follow the global standards for all SeaMonkey Wizards. I think Ben was doing this? Recommend: B for Back N for Next C for Cancel F for Finish
hoping ben gets to this :)

Does this mean that mnemonics are out for Netscape 6?!
Convention on Windows and Mac OS is for mnemonics to be given only to buttons which are not activated using Enter or Escape. `Cancel' should have Escape, and `Next'/`Finish' (which should really be the same button, since the wizard can't really generate usable defaults for things like mail server name in order for a separate `Finish' button to be useful) should have Enter. If they had their own C/N/F mnemonics as well, then no wizard would ever be able to use C, N, or F as a mnemonic in its own form elements, which would be pretty restrictive. See also bug 24873.

this and 24873 both cover mnenomics. I think we should just combine them into one bug *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 24873 ***
