It seems all the text input fields in the new options menu have this problem
(except for new popups like "Allowed Sites")

When pasting something, it works, but as soon as you start typing it scrolls
back to the beginning.

Works in 2005-06-30 build, fails in 2005-07-01 build, most likely a regression
from fixing bug 286182.

It seems like this code somehow triggers this bug, I guess:

Asaf and ben, can you look at this? I'd assume that this is one of the most
commonly used prefs and to have it regressed from 1.0 would be bad.
