Goto an IP that does not respond like http://123.4.5.6. Get the error page. Click Try Again. While the Try Again button is disabled hit Ctrl-L. It does nothing, similarly for other keyboard shortcuts.

summary:     Bug 546857 Part 3: Make error pages not use xul buttons. r=dao a=blocker
The problem is that disabled HTML input suppress all events on themselves, no?  We have existing bugs on that; maybe we should fix them....
Oh, so this isn't related to bug 546857 at all then. Will happen on any webpage which uses non-xul buttons, i.e. every page with buttons which are disabled.
Well, it's related to us switching to a non-XUL button here in terms of the STR as file... ;)
