2001011208 MTrunk. Plugin:Shockwave Flash 5.0 r30
Goto URL.
There is a Macromedia's Flash movie at the upper right.
You mouse over the triangle icon, and some menu is loaded and displayed.
You click x icon in the menu to close it.
Result: You can not do anything with the page except navigating by keyboard,
like space, up, down, pg up, pg down. On the other hand, tab is trapped within
the Flash movie, and hitting tab only changes the menus within the Flash.
Cursor does not change whether over a link or text, any clicking within the page
is ineffective unless you reload the page. Scroll bar also becomes unresponsive.
Expected Results:You should be able to get out of Flash.
Probably a dupe of Flash plugin bugs, but I could not find one that describes
this behavior.
Resizing the window brings the control back to Mozilla from plugin.

I think this is a regression caused by the focus patch in bug 58957. 

Chris, looks like plugins are sealing focus from scrollbars. Is there an easy 
way to fix?

Flash crasher or backward incompatibility bug. Nominating for nsbeta1 as
high-quality plug-in support is a priority for embedded applications.

Probably a dupe of 65687, fix for which is finally being checked in today.
marking as a dupe. Will reopen if the supposedly fixed build  still shows the
problem.
