I suspect (but could be wrong) this is related to the fact that in
11.10, now gtk won't honor the Emacs keybindings theme.  Now even if the
gtk key theme is set to "Emacs", Ctrl A/E/K etc don't work anymore as
they used to in any GTK text field (gedit, firefox text areas, etc).  I
tried to report it as a separate bug but keep getting launchpad server
errors that discard my report, so I gave up and found the most similar
existing bug.

Title:
  Fix for #821290 broke M-f/M-b behaviour in gnome-terminal without
  menubar

Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The fix for #821290 broke M-f/M-b (that is 'Alt + f' and 'Alt + b')
  behaviour in gnome-terminal instances running with the menu bar
  hidden.

  If I install libgtk-3-0_3.2.0-0ubuntu1_i386.deb and run
  gnome-terminal, M-f acts as forward-word and M-b acts as
  backwards-word in bash or zsh instances.

  If I upgrade to libgtk-3-0_3.2.0-0ubuntu2_i386.deb, M-f or M-b both
  just bring up the menu bar prompt, even though my gnome-terminal is
  configured to run with 'Show menu bar' turned off.

  This is a regression from natty and breaks the brain of emacs users
  like me who have these keys hardwired into their muscle memory.
