User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0
Build ID: 20171114100042

Steps to reproduce:

When using remapped cut/copy/paste hotkeys on OS X (10.11.3), Firefox doesn't respect the paste remapping even though the menu items show the remapped hotkeys.




Actual results:

"Edit" menu shows the correct mappings:

* "Cut - ^X"
* "Copy - ^C"
* "Paste - ^V"

In the webview:

* Copy from paragraph using ^C: works!
* Copy from textarea using ^C: works!
* Cut from textarea using ^X: works!
* Paste to textarea using ^V: menu highlights on keypress, doesn't paste though
* Paste to textarea using Command-V: works

Address bar and search bar:

* Copy using ^C: works!
* Paste using ^V: menu highlights on keypress, doesn't paste though
* Paste using Command-V: works


Expected results:

* Remapped ^C copies from the webview/address bar/search bar
* Remapped ^V pastes to the webview/address bar/search bar
* Remapped ^X cuts from the webview/address bar/search bar

All actions will highlight "Edit" on menubar on key press, then specified action will take place.
