Ctrl-T should not be used for the "Straighten" function

For the "Straighten" function only key "T" should be used and not CTRL-T,
because this is used in Firefox to open a new tab.

When a shape is selected this could lead to use this function by accident.

Does Firefox really pass the keypress through to Flash Player as well as acting on it itself? That's beyond retarded if so - I can't reproduce it on 3.0.6 for OS X.

Talking for Firefox 3.5.3 on a Windows XP system the situation is as follows:
on "normal" tabs, CTRL-T opens a new tab.
When working with potlatch, this does never happen, but if a boundary or such is
selected it is converted to a circle.
