Well, enough that it makes adding code to Moz look overkill.

You'd be limited on the emulation of emacs keys... I suspect ESC-s
wouldn't work for example, but ALT-S might.

I'm not sure how web standards hold up on modifier keys.


Search is an interesting one... I'm not sure how you'd implement
search. Modern Javascript does have regular expressions... so it
might be possible. XSLT 2.0 has regexs too, as do many XSLT 1.0
implementations out there... so it might be possible with XSLT as
well.

Straight forward would be:

- next/prev
- begin/end 
- index and menu lookups
