Build ID: 20150702232110

Steps to reproduce:

This doesn't work (the function does not get called) when e10s is enabled in Firefox Developer 42:

<keyset id="mainKeyset">
	<key id='scrollkey-scrollup-pageup'
	keycode='VK_PAGE_UP'
	oncommand='scrollkey.scrollupif();'
	/>
</keyset>

It does work when e10s is disabled. This code is part of Scrollkey: https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/scrollkey/

VK_PAGE_DOWN doesn't work either. Something like this works:
<key id='scrollkey-scrolldown-j'
	modifiers=''
	key='j'
	oncommand='scrollkey.scrolldown(0);'
/>

This is something that needs to be changed in the add-on code. You'll need a frame script that runs the code that actually does the scrolling, since with e10s enabled you can't invoke functions directly in the content.
