STR:
1. Bookmark any page via CTRL+D.
2. Add one tag for this bookmark.
3. Visit a different page and add this as another bookmark via CTRL+D.
4. Tab to the "Show all Tags" button and activate it with SPACE.
5. Tab to the list of pre-defined tags, and try to activate/deactivate entries with SPACE.

Result: State is not toggled.
Expected. Like on Windows, state should be toggled.
Flags: blocking1.9.0.1?
State is toggle to checked but then reverts immediately, yo see it flash.
So I guess an extra event is being used to toggle it.
Also WFM with latest nightly on OS X 10.5. Seems to be a Linux only issue.

Is this a regression? Are other checkboxes also affected?

Also happens in beta 5. Other checkboxes, for example in the Preferences dialog, are not affected.
Regression range (nightlies): 2007081604…2007081704. That’s when the “starring, bookmarking and tagging UI” has been enabled with at least two check-ins from bug 385266.
Thanks Alex for getting the regression window. It's interesting why that only happens on Linux.

A Litmus testcase covering this can be found here:

Don't think that this is needed in the release notes, removing keyword.

Mano: any idea what could have caused this regression on Linux?
Not a regression, no progress, can't block the release on this.

This works for me on the current release (Firefox 46.0.1) and latest Nightly (49.0a1) using Ubuntu 15.04. I will close the bug. If anyone can still reproduce the issue on a current build, fell free to reopen it.
