[Bug 110246] Re: Firefox main window losing focus performing certain tasks on gmail

I can confirm that there are focus problems with firefox 3 and gmail.
Easiest way to reproduce problem:
1) Go to Gmail settings, turn on keyboard shortcuts (make sure to save changes)
2) Go to https://mail.google.com (it's important to trigger a full reload- just going back to the inbox isn't good enough)
3) Hit j. Expected behavior is to move the arrow down. It does not.
4) Click to the right of the 'refresh' button (clicking into the mail frame)
5) Hit j. Arrow now moves down as expected

Alternate way to fix it:
4) Hit shift-tab 4 times, moving the focus backward though the list until it lands on the right frame.
5) Hit j, Arrow now moves down as expected

Various gmail operations will land the focus into an odd state. For
instance, doing a search seems to put the focus one item beyond where it
should be (shift-tab once will fix it).

Hopefully that'll provide a place to start. If you have more questions,
I'll respond :)
