With multiple (active) IMEs and keyboard installed, you can switch among them by
pressing left Alt+Shift. This used to work well, but recently its behavior
became 'erratic'. With Alt key pressed down, pressing 'shift' repeatedly doesn't
switch IMEs / keyboards. I have to release Alt and then press again along with
'shift' to go to the next IME / keyboard in the list.
Did you said that alt + shift should be auto repeat?
Oh, I see.
This problem occured only on win9x.
I can reproduce it.
I can reproduce with Firefox1.0 on WinMe.
Is it regression?
Yes, firefox 1.0 has that, too. I'm not on Win ME at the moment, but old Mozilla
binaries (I'm not sure how old. I haven't tested Mozilla 1.6, 1.7 when I was on
Win ME, but a very old one from 2001 worked fine) didn't have that problem.

I don't think roy still looking at mozilla bug these days. You better fine a
better owner...

This reproduced only on Win9x. So, we should do nothing in this bug anymore.
