Why ? because Mozilla doesn't respond to the first keypress ?

Comment 2

No, it seems to respond to the first keypress but it does not send the focus to
the original window (tab). However, it does remove the focus from the active tab.

Example: Opened
http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Internet/Clients/WWW/Browsers/Mozilla/

Holding Ctrl down, I start opening links in tabs while pressing tab to get back
to the original page after I open a new tab.

After the forth or fifth tab, *two* keypresses are required.

After the first keypress, the focus is removed from the active browser tab. I
can confirm this by typing with the keyboard. Mozilla does not "Find as I type".

Can you reproduce this with a more recent version of Mozilla?
