Giving the user control over accesskeys

Roger Johansson - Giving the user control over accesskeys:

"The normal way for a website to define a shortcut key is to use the accesskey attribute on an element that may have such an attribute, specifying a character that becomes the shortcut key in combination with one or more other keys as implemented by the browser (typically Alt in Windows and Ctrl in Mac OS X).

That doesn’t leave the user with any way to change the accesskeys defined by a website. Well, now there are at least two ways that web developers can offer that possibility."
