           Summary: Emacs keybindings override accesskeys (when a textbox
                    has focus)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.squarefree.com/start/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jruderman at gmail.com


1. Load http://www.squarefree.com/start/
2. Press Ctrl+1 to focus the Google Search textbox.
3. Press Ctrl+A to go to Asa's blog.

Result: Nothing happens.

Expected: Go to Asa's blog.

Note that some shortcuts, such as Ctrl+S, continue to work.  So I guess only
the Ctrl+letter shortcuts that have "emacs-like keybindings" (e.g. Ctrl+A for
"beginning of line") are overridden.

I don't know whether WebKit's behavior is intentional, but it's the opposite of
Firefox's behavior and it keeps confusing me.
