1006483 - bookmarking a page with Ctrl-D loses focus in the page, so Ctrl-W etc. doesn't work

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Nathan Froyd [:froydnj]]

I don't know whether this falls into Bookmarks or Keyboard Navigation or something else.  Ideally somebody can re-file as necessary.

STR:

1. Open a new tab and go to an unbookmarked page, I used http://planet.mozilla.org/
2. Press Ctrl-W to close the page.  Observe that this works as intended.
3. Repeat step 1.
4. Press Ctrl-D to bookmark the page.
5. Press Ctrl-W to close the page.

Expected:

The page closes.

Actual:

Nothing happens.  Clicking somewhere in the content area of the page is required to get focus back to the proper place.

Ctrl-D + Ctrl-W is very useful for remembering and clearing out tabs, and it's a drain to have to click around after you realize (yet again) that Ctrl-W isn't working properly.

There are a couple details here to clarify:
1. we changed the flow, now CTRL+D shows the star panel with focus on the name field, I think before we were just starring
2. on the Mac it seems to WFM
3. I couldn't reproduce it on Linux too (Ubuntu)

If it still does't work for you, please post more details about the window manager and other related stuff
