           Summary: embedded Delete in xmodmap somehow causes keys not to
                    be read by webkit/xombrero
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Other
               URL: https://github.com/conformal/xombrero/issues/51
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.9
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Bindings
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: holtzermann17 at gmail.com


In my typical xmodmap file, I include these bindings among others:

keycode  23 = p P Delete
keycode  39 = r R Delete

So, somehow, the presence of Delete on the ModeSwitch layer is "visible" to Webkit/Xombrero, and, further, it means I can't type 'p' or 'r' into text fields. I'm able to enter these keys into the URL bar and search bar of the same program, and I've verified that it is not a hardware issue.  I removed the Delete part of the binding, and 'p' and 'r' work fine in the text area after that.

This seems like it must be a Webkit problem not xombrero per se (unless I'm mistaken) but I've also pointed to the bug report I filed to the Xombrero tracker.

To clarify my setup:  I'm running Xombrero (built from source) under X11 on Mac OS X 10.9.2 with dependencies installed via Macports.  If I can provide further details please let me know.
