[Bug 657537] Re: address bar traps wm key bindings while results are visible

[steubens]

alright, sorry for that; but it didn't do this in 10.04, or 9.10

there has been a recent change that affected grabs, it apparently
improved rdesktop, but made firefox worse

alt closes popup menus in other programs, it doesn't in firefox, it
should drop the grab if it receives a key it isn't interested in, not
unlike when you type in the address bar in firefox itself

the part this makes annoying, and what i did a lot in 9.04, 9.10, 10.04;
was copying a url, going to another window and pasting it, i do that
_often_ so as soon as the grab behaviour changed (whatever the cause) i
noticed, i thought it was a fluke and someone would rv' whatever it was,
but i eventually reported it

i don't think invalid is appropriate, as it worked fine before


** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => New
