While playing the gamehouse.com game Text Twist online, the keyboard is not
recognized as an input device.  While playing the game in Safari, the player can
type the letters in the puzzle to play them, as well as click on them with the
mouse. In Camino, pressing thekeys does not work, the player has to use the mouse.

While this is just a game, could this be a sign of a bigger problem with the way
Camino runs Java applications?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to gamehouse.com and click throught to play text twist online
2. Click on the game window to make sure it is focused
3. press any key with a letter in the current puzzle - this SHOULD activate the
letter on the game board

Actual Results:  
Nothing occurs when keys are pressed.

Expected Results:  
Pressing a key associated with a puzzle letter should have played it onto the
game board.
