Yeah - I don't think we want UI, but if we're going to do different
things per-OS we might as well implement-via-hidden-pref than hardcode
the OS distinctions. There's plenty of precedent for that, e.g.
backspace-for-history.back being a hidden pref
(browser.backspace_action) that's different on Linux vs. elsewhere.
