In some cases (irregularly to my eye), FAYT interferes severely with form input.
I'll try to input some text into a <textarea> and FAYT will catch the text,
averting my focus on every character and making insertion of text VERY ANNOYING.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a page with a form (Post Reply on a vBB forum, f.e.)
2. Try to type into textarea
Actual Results:  
FAYT catches every character, making input a tedious process.

Expected Results:  
Input text into the form.
