(Whiteboard: [fixed by bug 178324])

Right now alt-enter from the location bar moves focus into the page instead of the original elements before focusing the location bar. This breaks sites like gmail because the key listener is in some iframe instead of the top page.

STR:
1) Turn on gmail keyboard shortcuts (and use it in gmail)
2) Cmd-L to the location bar then alt-enter some url
3) Switch back to gmail and press a keyboard command

actual: autofind pops up if you have that pref set
expected: the keyboard command in gmail working
The try builds from bug 178324 seem to fix this.
