Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a web page with a text area or text field
  2. Begin typing, ensuring that your cursor is inside of a text field
  3. Do control/command-p
  4. Hit escape
  5. Keep typing

What happens:

Firefox lost your cursor and nothing is typed.

Expected result:

I should be able to continue typing where I was.

This is particularly annoying for screen reader and keyboard only users because of their reliance on the keyboard. Any focus loss is thus super annoying at best, downright confusing at worst (the user might not know how to "restore" focus from limbo).

This appears to work correctly with the TabDialogBox patch from bug 1653317 applied.

(Since this seems to be fixed by bug 1653317, I'm removing the [print2020_v81] tag, for easier tracking.)

And now that bug 1653317 has landed, this should be fixed. :)
