Conkeror is nice, but can be a bit difficult to combine with other
Firefox extensions.

However, there is an extension "Keysnail" for Firefox which gives you a
regular Firefox with some emacs-like behaviors added to that (including
the "C-x b" binding).

Keysnail has its own plugins, and e.g. the "HoK" one is quite nice,
giving you on-screen shortcuts for access links through your keyboard,
just like Conkeror (and ace-jump-mode, eno etc. in emacs) do.
