[Bug 122118] Pressing Ctrl+W once closes all tabs, one by one

[Carlos Fenollosa]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

I'd like to think that this is my keyboard's fault, but I've only been
able to reproduce this behaviour on Firefox, and only with Ctrl+W

The situation is as follows, and happens quite often (not always, but
often): I have many tabs opened, and press ctrl+w to close the current
tab, as I've always done. If this bug appears, firefox will keep closing
all tabs, even though ctrl+w is no longer pressed, until there is only
one tab and the browser closes itself.

After firefox has closed, no other windows are closed, so this isn't the
keyboard's or the window manager's fault. Also, when typing on web
forms, like I'm doing now filing this bug report, no keys get "stuck".
It only happens with ctrl+w.

This bug seems to appear only when I'm working with beryl (0.2.0) but,
as stated before, it's not happening with any other app

If you need further information please contact me here, I'll be happy to
trace down this bug.
