This thing is completely broken on TB 24.5, even after installing ver. 1.2 xpi compiled from source.

Update (2014-08-01):
After having used the extension for some time, I changed my opinion somewhat. It works well enough, provided one knows the keybindings, which brings me to the real problem: An unfortunate lack of documentation around keybindings. I've been using Pentadactyl for some time (and Vim now and again) and I'd say I've got a fairly advance knowledge of their keybindings. However, Muttator has very specific modes for Thunderbird, such as 'Compose' and 'Message' mode. The latter is described in the Help (:helpall) Intro as follows:

"For example, it has a special Message mode, where key bindings behave differently from the normal mode..."

And that is the first and only mention of Message mode in the builtin-help. Basically all the keybindings described apply to web page shortcuts - it appears that these are essentially just a copy of the Vimperator/Pentadactyl help pages.

I managed to find some third party blogs listing keybindings, but sadly even those are, in many respects, incomplete or inaccurate. Still I'm grateful to those authors for helping new users of this add-on.

I'm upgrading my rating from 1 to 3 stars; but this could have been even higher if it wasn't for the documentation problem.
