Ctrl+* shortcuts don't work in the Find toolbar since the Find field does not
have a cursor (but keyboard input gets directed to it). Clicking the field with
the mouse presents the user with a cursor after which all keyboard shortcuts
related to text entry work fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start typing - the find toolbar appears
2. Try pasting text with Ctrl+V

Actual Results:  
No text gets pasted.

Expected Results:  
Text should get pasted since this is the default behaviour of a textfield. Also
other keyboard data entry shortcuts should work.

Like bug 253988, this is invalid. It's not supposed to have focus in TAF mode.

FAYT could support Ctrl+V and Ctrl+Backspace without the Find bar having focus,
and IMO it should support at least Ctrl+V.

This is fixed by bug 259454.(It's Fx only, not including SeaMonkey)
