I love how Nautilus makes use of the same keyboard shortcuts for dealing with tabs as the Firefox web-browser (e.g., Ctrl+T, Ctrl+W, and Alt+1-0). This really contributes to ease-of-use.

Yet one important keyboard shortcut is missing from Nautilus: Ctrl+Tab.

Please implement a Ctrl+Tab keyboard shortcut for Nautilus. Ctrl+Tab should work in Nautilus the same way it works in Firefox: to advance the input-focus through open tabs.

Hmm, not sure about this. Epiphany doesn't even seem to use those. We already have control-pageup/down and control-alt-pageup/down for navigating tabs. What would having yet another one and a non-standard one do for us?

If this is desirable, it should be done for all gtk+ applications, not only nautilus, as has been said in bug 671273, opened by the same reporter.
