tab added to the body of the email

Expected Results:  
Nothing should be added to the body of the message until that field has focus

Are you talking about phenomenon of bug 564737?

No I don't believe so. This tab is being dropped into the compose field, you dont even have to send the email for this behavior.

Text mode? HTML mode? or both? Can you attach screen shot?
Does problem occur with -safe-mode of Tb?

Well I am glad you asked, I checked HTML mode as i only use text mode. In text mode it drops in a tab. In HTML mode it drops in 4 spaces. It does also occur in safe mode.

To see same screen shot, next is required in my environment.
1. Open compose window
2. Tab -> cursor is placed at Subject field
3. Tab -> cursor is placed at top/left of body
4. Tab -> same as attached screen shot

There is already build3.
