Description

Feature summary (what you would like to be able to do and where):

Fix macOS Safari keyboard shortcut: Command + [ , ] opens the Safari settings menu. (See T400569: Keyboard shortcut for subscript same in macOS Safari for opening Safari settings). I tested using Beta Cluster: (https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmcloud.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Div_col_end) I found that Command + Shift + fn + , works to open the settings.

For settings:

This menu does not have a visual way of getting to the settings either in current MediaWiki. Consider MediaWIki:Accessibility guide for developers, and W3C ARIA APG § Developing a Keyboard Interface and WCAG 2.0 keyboard shortcut can't be only way, must be text, and visual icon in dropdown menu is hidden. Does that menu belong to WikiEditor (2010)? If not implemented, is this something to discuss at phab:Accessibility?

FWIW you can press F1 and select "Show settings menu".

Clarify this for me? I press fn-F1 and nothing happens. I've done this with the Syntax button on and off...

You should see a menu like this.

Nope. fn+F1 nor F1 on macOS does nothing, when using Safari or Chrome.

Are you sure you're using CodeEditor and not CodeMirror? CodeEditor is not enabled in the Template namespace.
