What about FF on other platforms (like Windows or Linux)?  Or other browsers on OS X?  Are you sure this isn't just a bug in the site?

And if this does only happen in FF, did it start recently?  In other words, is this only reproducible with recent versions of Firefox?

Oops, I suppose other platforms don't have the equivalent of the Special Characters window.  But still you should check other browser on OS X.

The Special Characters window is a standard component of most Mac applications.

I am resolving this bug as invalid because I can reproduce with Chrome and Safari on Mac. This must be a content problem.

Presumably it's a key listener and that doesn't fire using the special characters window. However, they could solve this by using an "input" listener (looks like their non-mobile site works fine so already uses "input")
