This is enabled by default on all platforms... 

To clarify, does this page work fine if this pref is set to true? If so, this is not a valid bug.

This sounds like a separate issue. We should file another bug if there's a problem with the backspace key.

Possible dupe of Bug 1238446 ?

Re-summarizing this bug to reflect what I see as the problem. I'm having trouble selecting any text, which means I can't copy it.

drive-by, backspace issue might be a dup of Keyboard/IME bug 1241558
