It means the hability to browse web pages only using the keyboard, thanks to a
special mode in the browser called, you guessed, caret browsing mode. It's of
great importance for accessibility, and Gecko's implementation is specified
here: http://www.mozilla.org/access/keyboard/proposal

Sure.

I think at least for this patch keeping the dummy constant would be better, we
can further refactor it in follow-up patches.

OK, I can provide at the very least a manual test.
