Details

[Marking unconfirmed because I haven't tested with trunk.] The metacity window manager can have keyboard shortcuts for moving the current window to the edge of the screen. You can bind these with gconf; for instance, the following command will bind Ctrl-Alt-r to move the current window to the right edge of the screen: gconftool-2 --type=string --set /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_side_e '<Control><Alt>r' This works fine with most windows, but Firefox windows immediately move back to their original position. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/269809 for another report of this issue. - Josh Triplett
Marking as NEW based on confirmation by someone running a trunk build.

And still in current 7.0a2.
This bug no longer exists in Firefox 57. I don't know how long ago it was fixed, but it doesn't need to stay open now.
