Is similar to bug #551936 (with different effect because in bug #551936 all composition toolbar is disabled). I can reproduce also here on on TB 3.x release Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.2pre) Gecko/20100312 Lightning/1.0b2pre Lanikai/3.1b2pre ID:20100312032514
Version: Trunk → unspecified
Another STR (from dupe bug #551936): 1. open compose window; 2. hit tab for move cursor from "To:" field to message body: composition toolbar remains disable. Menu-->Insert and Menu-->Format are also disable. As workaround you can move cursor to subject or address list and then click on message body.
Summary: Composer: Icons format and spell are grayed, if use key TAB from subject line (TB 3.1a1) → Composition toolbar disabled under particulars cases

Regression from 3.0.4 - gary do you have time to hunt that one ? STR : 1) cmd-N 2) tab 3) tab
So I think this regression range is the same as bug 543077 comment 15, though confirmation of that would be useful.
Depends on: 543077
Neil seems to agree, as per bug 543077 comment 21.
This doesn't seem to effect replies, and hitting the space bar (which seems like one of the first things most users would try) makes the problem going away, so we wouldn't hold for this.

(In reply to comment #10) With "space" (or any other typing) toolbar becomes enabled but "Format" and "Insert" menus are not, so there is no way to use theese functions with keyboard-only input. I want to look how do you insert <hr> into new message without mouse. Indeed, mouse click must be made or the edit window will not be fully-functional.

All the rv:1.9.1* works. have tested under Linux. Gecko/20090610 Shredder/3.0b3pre = OK Gecko/20090611 Shredder/3.0b3pre = OK ...

So I'm afraid, it is the change from rv:1.9.1 to rv:1.9.2

We'd already branched the core backend, and that is the difference between the 3.0b3pre builds and the 3.1a1pre builds (and the issue here is most likely in the core backend).
