Description

Describe the bug

Marks.activateGotoMode not working on Firefox with MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to URL https://support.google.com/docs/answer/181110?sjid=724175702371788849-AP#zippy=%2Cmac-shortcuts
  2. Scroll to the middle of the page
  3. Create a mark with mm
  4. Go to the top of the page with gg
  5. Type backtick + m:
`m

It won't go to the location of the mark.

Also I mapped the operation to another key such as:

map @ Marks.activateGotoMode

But, pressing @m didn't work either.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported mark workflow in Firefox on macOS, then inspect the implementation of Marks.activateGotoMode and the mapped key path. The fix is complete when both backtick-plus-mark and the custom @-mapping navigate to the saved mark without breaking the existing workflow.
