Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Keyboards and IME, defect, P3)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

Typing a URL or string of characters into location bar in Aurora with a "SHIFT + letter", using Hacker's Keyboard clears the current string from the location bar and replaces with a lowercase version of the "SHIFT + letter" typed.

Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Set input to Hacker's Keyboard
2. Tap location bar
3. Type a series of characters (e.g. elephan)
4. Tap Shift
5. Tap t

Actual result: "t"

Expect: "elephanT"

Actual result: "elephanT" but then Hacker's Keyboard VKB is dismissed, which is really annoying.
