This is a follow-up from bug 390238.
Now that onbeforecut/copy/paste events are supported (bug 280959), the testcase is hanging Mozilla.

From bug 390238, comment 7:

No, it doesn't hang when using onfocus, so there seems to be some loop protection happening there for that case.
Note that I had to use 3 text inputs to get the hang, because with 2 text inputs, I would not get the hang, but an error in the error console saying "Too much recursion".
This is worksforme now, because bug 418457 removed support for onbeforepaste events.
