How do I change the default FF4 shortcuts?

I would like to change the Panorama shortcut (Ctrl-Shift-E) to Ctrl-Shift-G ("G for groups" is what my brain insists on remembering). Currently Ctrl-Shift-G opens up the search bar, but this is redundant because that bar already opens with Ctrl-F ("F for find").

I currently use Kubuntu 11.04 as my OS of choice. Occasionally, I use Windows 7 and, every once in a blue moon, I'll use a mac... so if there's a solution which works through Firefox, and not through my system shortcuts, that would be great.

I would greatly appreciate anyone helping me out. Thanks.

I have never tried it, but the Customizable Shortcuts add-on may do what you want - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/customizable-shortcuts/

Thanks a bunch! TonyE's solution worked perfectly. I was able to successfully change the Panorama shortcut to Ctrl-G (at least on my Kubuntu install).
