I have mouse 4 bound to a macro mouse driver macro "ctrl-w" to close my current tab (I'm too lazy to hit the tab's 'X'). 

When I interact with a flash object with the mouse (ie: hitting play on a youtube video), the emulated keyboard shortcut doesn't appear to be handled by the firefox window until I single click on some white space within the page area, outside of the flash object.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a youtube video
2. Interact with it
3. Try and use ctrl-w kb macro
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
An immediate reaction - as responsive as if I hit mouse 5, which is bound to back.
