Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Press Ctrl-U with cursor in any input box on a webpage or in Firefox URL/search boxes. Actual Results: Ctrl-U does "View Page Source". Expected Results: "clear-line" command, clearing any text in that line. This is a Firefox 1.0 change. It's something that only advanced users would know about/use, but is desirable in order to keep standard UI functionality.
