Can you restart Firefox in safe mode, and try to duplicate this behavior? I can't duplicate this in Nightly.

It is reproducible with latest Nightly 40.0a1 under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32-bit, as expected, according to http://www.accessfirefox.org/Firefox_Keyboard_and_Mouse_Shortcuts.html .

Ah, different keystrokes x-platform.. Fair enough..  This can be closed and I will change the keystroke used in the web app to something else.
