Uplift to be compatible with TB 113?

Are there any plans to update the extension to be compatible with the forthcoming TB 113 release?
Personally, I still use tbkeys myself, so I would like to keep it working with the stable release, but I don't have much time for getting ahead of things and testing against the beta versions. I know there is one previously reported problem (#131). I played around with the daily version of Thunderbird just now and saw that #131 is still an issue, but otherwise the basic functionality still seemed to work in quick testing. When 115 is released, I will upload a version to addons.thunderbird.net that marks it compatible as long as there are no major issues found that need to be fixed first.
Also, on the roadmap for 115, I saw that customizable shortcuts was mentioned which I thought might reduce the need for tbkeys for some users, but I couldn't find a way to customize shortcuts in the daily version that I tried.
Thanks for replying, as long as it will hopefully be supported against the release versions I'm happy :)
The other thing to keep in mind is that tbkeys encourages interfacing with the internals of Thunderbird. I have heard 115 described as a major refactoring of the internals to make Thunderbird more maintainable in the future, so some custom bindings that worked in the last version might not work in 115.
Understood, I only use a few basic bindings, so hopefully it'll still work for me :)
