User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2

In previous versions, CTRL+HOME would go to the top of the source.  Now it seems like this key combination does nothing.  Very annoying.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View source to any page
2. Hit CTRL+END to go to the bottom of the source
3. Hit CTRL+HOME to go back to the top.  Nothing happens.

This happens indeed but only when I have caret browsing on (press f7 to disable/enable). I see the same in Firefox 1.5.0.10 but not in 1.0.x.

With caret browsing on this is a dupe of Bug 282550.
With caret browsing off this bug is WORKSFORME.

Let us narrow this bug down then, shall we.
Ctrl+Home doesn't work whilst caret browsing is on.

Noticed this behaviour just today and also confirming this on Seamonkey 1.1.1.

Confirming on Firefox 2.  WORKSFORME on both trunk and Gran Paradiso 3 Alpha 5.  Is there interest to fix this on the 2 branch?
