In *this* page hold doen the shift key and do a double click onto some element,
for example a text with no link, or a text field, a combobox or whatever. That
element disapperas.

Tried with a few sites, including the search results of google.

When there is a link attached to the elemen, this element diappears *and* the
save-as window pops up.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. press shift key (left or right)
2. double click on a simple text, a form field or an image


Actual Results:  
the 'scary' element disappears


Expected Results:  
*not* disappear

Workaround: reload the page :-)
According to a discussion detecting this behaviour this problem happens with
firefox too.
what extensions do have installed?
If you have Adblock installed this sounds like its quickblock feature,
ctrl-shift-k to enable/disable, shift+double-click to make things disappear, if
you keep the button down and move mouse around everything it touches disappears.
This is most likely because of Adblock.
