Details
In recent nightlies (fx 8.0a), the new built-in inspector was added. The built-in inspector and DOM Inspector both have the same keyboard shortcut <Ctrl><Shift>-I

Press <Ctrl><Shift>-I
Expected results:
Firefox's built-in inspector pops up
Actual results:
DOM Inspector pops up
It would be nice to have two different shortcuts.

I resolved this WONTFIX due to the expected results; the same sentiment goes for any other suggestion where Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+I results in anything that involves, by default, DOM Inspector not opening (when it's installed). This conversation has already passed. Even with my own pre-emptive attempts to be cautious and play nice here, the suggestions still came to do what we did. (In particular, see bug 569054, comment 5 and bug 569054, comment 8.)
However, feel free to repurpose this bug and re-open for a different set of expected results (e.g., conditionally remapping the devtools inspector key).
(For the sake of continuity, meandering Bugzilla reader, bug 747603 is related.)
devtools inspector has two set of keys: CTRL+SHIFT+I and F12
DOMi on other hands at this point has none, with a proposed resolution is WONTFIX.
Great.

Reread my message.
The bug as written was that pressing Ctrl+Shift+I opened DOM Inspector (when installed) instead of the devtools inspector. I marked the bug WONTFIX in response to the request that Ctrl+Shift+I *not* open DOM Inspector.
If you're using that shortcut expecting it to open DOM Inspector, and it's not happening, then that's the complete opposite of Andrew Halberstadt's request, and it's an entirely different bug.
In any case, I stepped down from maintaining DOM Inspector over two years ago, and I don't think anybody else is working on it. So DOMi is effectively dead or close to it.
I started a project to create a replacement meant to be very close in spirit to DOM Inspector (in contrast to Firebug or the devtools stuff). <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sepsis-inspector/> The Ctrl+Shift+I shortcut does work there (controlled by the sepsis.inspector.integration.overrideKeys pref in about:config). Downside: It's pre-1.0, never reached the point where it could match DOMi feature-for-feature, and the Firefox/Add-ons teams are killing extension development. So I stopped actively working on sepsis a couple months ago, and it's effectively dead for now, too. :/
