(Keywords: regression)

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0 ID:20150825030212 CSet: 04b8c412d9f58fb6194c58dcaa66bf278bbd53cf

The keyboard shortcut ctrl+k no longer works if your caret is in the url bar.

Steps to reproduce
1/ CTRL+T to open a new tab
2/ CTRL+K

Expected result:
Caret moves to the search bar

Actual result:
Nothing happens

Works correctly on the release channel (40)
Works fine on Italian build on OS X, so I'd assume it's only Linux (I can confirm the issue in my VM).
OS: Unspecified → Linux
It's also a recent regression (~a week). I was using a build from August on the VM and it worked before the last update to 2015-08-25
Dup Bug 1176929 ?

I don't think so:
* It still works if you're in the page. If you move to the URL bar (CTRL+L) it stops working.
* It worked for me in a previous build from August.
It might not be that recent as I thought. Have another VM, and build from 2015-08-13 was already affected.

Agreed, this appears to be a dup of Bug 1176929.
Does seem to be a dupe of Bug 1176929, mind changing bug status Pascal?
