[Bug 583965] [NEW] accens in gmail compose don't work if field is reached by "tab"

[Leandro]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox


When typing e-mails on Gmail on Firefox 3.6.3, if the text field is reached
using the 'tab' key, accent input using a dead-key keyboard don't work. 

That is, I cannot type á, é, í, etc.

However, if instead of going to the field by pressing 'tab' y go to it 
with the mouse and cilcking, it works.

This is a firefox bug, not a ubuntu bug, because MacOS users are
having the same problem, as reported here:

I'm posting it here so people knows about it and maybe can communicate to
firefox developers, I'm not sure they are aware of that.
