modify command keys in windows registry on update (in separate .exe with elevated privileges) in addition to the registry keys in bug #354226, I need to also update some of the command keys. as for what to update, robert has some specific keys that he needs updated. I'll follow up with him.
Flags: blocking1.8.1.2?
I followed up with robert, and it's more than just the command keys. for vista, the updater.exe code needs to update the registry similar to what robert's patch in bug #354005 does. i'll enumerate what needs to be done, but make the fix part of bug #354226 thanks to robert for taking the time to elaborate the issue.

actually, this is now WONTFIX. we've got a simpler approach, see bug #354226 comment #41. this work is being done, but it will be done by the uninstaller, which we'll be launching from nsPostUpdateWin.js (via WinLaunchChild(), so that it can have elevated privs.)
