I just noted this in a nightly built from <http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/e11c2f95f781>.  In gmail, when replying to a text-only message, if you go to the end of a line and press Enter, the caret moves to the next line, but no new line gets drawn.  Switching tabs fixes the problem.

It's probably a regression from one of my recent patches.  I'm trying to find out which one now.
Actually it seems that this doesn't have anything to do with my changes.  Bisecting now...
OK, found the culprit:

ehsan@ehsan-Macmini:~/moz/src$ hg bis -b
The first bad revision is:
changeset:   63814:91604d53c7ce

summary:     Bug 263359 part 5: optimization -- don't do bidi resolution if the text is monodirectional. r=roc

I'm going to back out bug 63814, because this looks really bad...
Blocks: 63814
I was obviously talking about bug 263359...
Blocks: 263359
No longer blocks: 63814
Locally backing out changeset 91604d53c7ce fixes the problem.

Yes.  The backout fixes this bug.

I tried to write a mochitest for this but it passes without the fix, even though a very similar mochitest in attachment 522788 [details] [diff] [review] fails as expected. Ehsan, any idea why?

Hmm, snapshotWindow causes a flush.  Would that be something which would fix the symptoms on its own?  If you just return instead of setting s2 or s3 for example, do you see the symptom on the screen?

I do not.

Hmm, then something is fundamentally different in the test.  If you remove the synthesizeKey calls and enter the keys manually, does that reproduce the problem on the screen?  If it does, then what happens if you add a setTimeout(..., 0) after each synthesizeKey before doing the next one?
