I was in google Gmail, trying to type an email. When I pressed apostrophe ( ' ) , Mozilla took the focus away from the email and the mozilla text FIND tool became highlighted. Selecting another TAB and back again seems to solve the fault. This problem has happened several times, but is not consistent or predictable.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open gmail
2. compose a new email
3. type "ya i'm ... " etc

This bug happens occasionally.

arbitrary characters in textareas/form input fields, FAYT (find as you type)
