Due to bug 353539?

Does Bespin use a textarea/input text control underneath?  If yes, does it focus that text control when setFocus is called?

If the answer to both of these questions are true, this might be a dupe of bug 562447 or bug 564115.

Bespin uses a textarea control to capture the user's input, but this is not used to display anything.

Scrolling is managed by pure JS. Due to that, I don't think this bug is related to any of the bugs mentioned so far.

@satyr: I tried to reproduce this bug on my Mac but I couldn't. Which version of Bespin did you use?

0.7.3. (test environment: first post's user-agent / test case: Bug URL)

Just checked with today's nightly and the test passed. So I guess the issue is about incompatibility with Fx3.6.

OK, anyway, both bugs I mentioned in comment 2 have patches reviewed and ready for landing.  Feel free to CC me here again if my help is needed on the browser side of things.
