Cris, have you set browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false or does it also happen when set to true? For Cmd+C we already have bug 486395.

i just tested with 3.5 beta 4 build 1, change browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab settings does not solve the problem.

Ok, can reproduce. Hitting Cmd+W when having the focus in the address bar doesn't close the window.

Closely related to (or a dup of) bug 433256.

Also possibly related to bug 421858 and bug 433778.

Steven, the copying issue should have been already fixed by the patch on bug 486395 on trunk. So I'll check bug 433256 and mark it as dupe if necessary. The remaining issue on this bug is the popup closing shortcut.
