Just to clarify: you're using Alt+A and Ctrl+E while you have focus in a textfield (like when your adding a comment in this bug)?

Yes, exactly.

Can you reproduce with SeaMonkey v2.0a2 / current v2.0a3pre ?

* Move to beginning of line (in a text editing field) is marked as Ctrl+A -- nevertheless the actual behaviour is same (select all).
* Also confirm Ctrl+E launches editor
* Ctrl+Shift+T -- no action (I'm not sure what it is meant to do)
* Ctrl+Shift+K brings up the spell checker in 1.1.14, but works as expected in trunk
