Script updated to work with FF3. Please let me know if you experience problems with the updated code.

Currently, the menu lets the user navigate around the site. He or she can jump to "inbox", "compose new", "sent messages", "contacts", etc. Keyboard shortcuts are placed next to each option on the menu. I think this menu could work as a bridge for users who want to memorize the keyboard shortcuts. (Okay, they're not too difficult to learn, but the right click menu did help me memorize 'em.)

I hope to add more advanced functionality soon, such as separate menus for various pages and the ability to issue commands (e.g., "Delete this message").
