Title:
  pasting from crlf file into firefox textarea results in crlfcrlf line
  endings

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  I downloaded a text file with CRLF line endings. Pasted it from
  gedit/geany (the result is the same) into a firefox textarea (in my
  case the textarea was at http://pinyintools.zedwood.com/tojavascript
  ).  When you push submit you can see the lines are delimited with
  \r\n\r\n (crlfcrlf instead of crlf).  To confirm it wasn't the server
  that was doing anything funny I used the firefox tamperdata plug-in
  and captured the outgoing HTTP POST and looked at it, and it
  definitely had crlfcrlf.  I'll upload a screenshot of that too in a
  sec.
