708985 - Opening details for an add-on leaves keyboard focus on the add-on list

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 616440

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Wladimir Palant]

I've added Adblock Plus options directly to its Add-ons Manager page but noticed that this page isn't accessible by keyboard. Steps to reproduce:

1. Install a current Adblock Plus development build from https://adblockplus.org/en/development-builds#installation (any other extension with a scrollable details page in Add-ons Manager will do as well).
2. Restart browser.
3. Press Ctrl-Shift-A to open Add-ons Manager.
4. Click "More" in the Adblock Plus entry in the extensions list.
5. Press Page Down button.

Expected results:
The page scrolls down.

Actual results:
Nothing happens. In fact, if you press Down a few times and then Enter the details page for a different extension will open - the keyboard focus isn't on the page displayed but rather on the now invisible list of extensions.

Sounds like a dupe of bug 616440.
