Add Safari-like Bookmark shortcut keys to Firefox

The Firefox extension Bookmark Keys will allow you to select bookmarks on your Firefox bookmarks toolbar using Control-[1 to 9]. Safari has had this feature for a long time, and I find it very useful. Now Firefox has it, too.

[robg adds: I generally don't run pointers to individual Firefox extensions as hints (mainly because there are so many of them, and everyone's needs will be different). However, given the popularity of Safari and the convenience of the feature, I though I'd run this one. The only downside that I see with the extension is that it doesn't add the shortcut next to the bookmark's name in the Bookmarks menu, so you'll have to remember what Control-7 opens -- this is more difficult if, like me, you have individual sites and folders intermingled on your bookmarks bar.]
