How soon is Edge expected to switch to Chromium 74?
Chrome 74 was released as stable 2 days ago with a bugfix for a feature I use frequently (https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=927004). I'd like to know how soon Edge Canary is expe...
Yes, this is a bug, still hasn't been fixed. Standard behavior, including keyboard shortcuts, is like other standards. There are a few shortcuts (closing tab/window, navigating between them, etc.) that should be the same and that other browser one might be used to is all other browsers people actually use, the browsers Edge wants to get users away from. It makes sense to have the same behavior there.
I especially consider it a bug, because the Chromium team that originated this design decision treated it as a bug and reverted it. It seems that Edge forked during the 2 Chromium versions that it was that way.
The lack of support for this age old, universal shortcut is the one thing that prevents me from using Edge as a daily driver.
Just because there are other ways to accomplish the same task, doesn't mean this way should be removed, especially since it doesn't seem to be an intentional decision by the Edge team.
