Firefox backspace button action should be "Previous Page" not "Page Up"

[Mark]

Hey,

i was just wondering why Firefox had page up action bound to the
backspace button. and i end up reading this bug report:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=358764

Now the default action for Firefox in fedora is "page up" and i think
nearly every keyboard in the world _has_ a page up key so please
remove that silly default action. A patch for this to give the
backspace the "previous page" (or whatever you want to call it) action
is very simple:

type (in the address bar): about:config
find: browser.backspace_action
The value is likely to be on: 1. Change that value to 0 and backspace
is acting the way it should do.

I don't know where firefox is getting the "logic" to make firefox
default backspace action "previous page" in windows and "page up" in
linux.. just doesn't make sense to me.

And could this be patched in the firefox that is in the fedora repo?
or (if fedora chooses not to patch it to the "previous page" action)
than make it no action at all!! "page up" is just not good.

Posted here because i would like to know the users and developer
opinions about this.

Thanx,
Mark.
