Sounds like focus is not in the textbox when the backspace is pressed. We have a page-level command the hooks the backspace key to the session history "back" action.
I could just remove the <key> that hooks this up, but that would still not make backspace work, just not reload the page
Actually, I can't reproduce this on nexus one, galaxy tab or droid pro
I'll try again today on my galaxy s.  In case it matters, I was testing on crash-stats in the search field.
Some code for handling how keys are dispatched to the content has landed (http://hg.mozilla.org/mobile-browser/rev/3eea21d5b353) during the time this bug has been opened and now so Josh could you check if this happen again?
Can't reproduce.  Woohoo!
