I did that sequence and nothing happened.  I went on IRC, was told to 
file a bug, and did so (first finding that a similar bug was already 
reported):

   http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5576

This bug was first reported 2 months ago and hasn't gotten any response 
from the WebKit team.  Is it not filed correctly?

I might have funding in the next couple of weeks to get the Kupu editor 
working in WebKit.  I don't mind filing bugs with good test cases, but 
I'd like some indication whether the bug reports will get noticed. [wink]
