According to this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly it defines that, when Editing, I should be able to press Home and End to navigate to the start and end of the lines I am on.

Is that an error? I cannot use the Home and End keys at all in this very textarea I am typing in. Command-Left/Command-Right work, but not Home/End.

I have not changed any mappings of my keyboard, and I'm not using any addons. Restarting the browser in troubleshoot mode does not change the behavior.

I've read innumerable posts about this saying to remap it to Command-Left, but I don't want to do that. I want Home to scroll to the top of the page when I am browsing, and to go to the beginning of the line when typing. This is the behavior on Windows, and it should be consistent across versions. If I remap it, then the Home key goes Back a page, which is terrible.


Also no I'm not in caret mode.
