User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0 SeaMonkey/2.22.1 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131113180410

Steps to reproduce:

1. open a new tab (tab1)
2. open a document with <select> picklist (e.g. this bug submission page https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi#h=bugForm|SeaMonkey) in a second tab (tab2)
3. click on the picklist (e.g. "version:" picklist) to focus it
4. click on a tab header of tab1 to switch to tab1
5. press ^pgdn to switch to tab2
6. press ^pgup to switch back to tab1



Actual results:

switching to tab1 in step 6 does not work, also reproducible in firefox 26.0 linux 32
Same on Windows, moving to Core, not sure if this category is right

Attached patch fixSplinter Review
The added early return is what fixes this bug.

Adding HOME/END to the if-condition below it is a minor bug fix
for CTRL+HOME/END for single-select lists that I discovered.
We should map those to their non-CTRL behavior just like UP etc.

("single-select" here meaning comboboxes, or non-multiple lists)

Another bug which may be related: when <select size=1> picklist is focused in the current tab ^F4 doesn't close the tab but toggles the picklist instead (tested on seamonkey 2.22.1 for windows 32). Is it fixed in this bug or should I create a new one?
