Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

  Bug spotted on http://forum.ubuntu-
  fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=3218492#p3218492 , affects at least Firefox
  3.5.7, Firefox 3.6RC2, on at least GNU/Linux and MS Windows. I can
  confirm it affects myself too.

  Steps to reproduce :
  * Copy any text you want
  * Find a webpage with a text box, for example google.com search field
  * Put the mouse cursor on the edge of the field (important step)
  * Press Ctrl + left click + V
  --> Two behaviors observed:
  * The text will be pasted, but outside the text box
  * The text box will disappear
