Description
The wiki explains how to temporarily disable vimium using its own interface or adding keys for toggling it from chrome's extension page .
I found other extensions that make use of this on firefox by going to about:addons > Manage Extension Shortcuts

Would it be possible to add this option on firefox too?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the wiki's Disabling Vimium section and Firefox's about:addons > Manage Extension Shortcuts behavior described in the issue. Trace where Vimium defines its toggle keys and determine what Firefox exposes for extension shortcuts; done means custom toggle keys can be configured and used on Firefox's add-ons page.
