pressing H still brings it up when this option is set to false
No it doesn’t :-\
I get a find-as-you-type search for “H” in SM 1.1

Oops, it doesn’t accept upper-case letters. Fixed, thanks for catching this.

Uh… the issue is bigger, I only tested the ‘H’ key before: The hotkeys don’t work at all for me, neither upper or lower case. All my keypresses go directly into search-as-you-type.
This seems to be due to me setting extensions.adblockplus.ehh.showhelp to false – when I switch it back to true, everything works fine again.

Found it – there was some initialization code that would only run when the help box is shown. I didn’t test starting the browser with this setting off, that’s why I didn’t notice it. Fixed, thanks again.
