Public bug reported:

This is triggered mostly for me in Firefox, where I use Alt+D to switch
to the address bar, however, if I do this in the same "cycle" or period
of time I'd usually press a single key, then it triggers the HUD, but if
I consiously press and hold Alt, then press D and release both at the
same time, it doesn't.

I've worked around this for now by remapping the HUD (following
http://ubuntuguide.net/disable-unitys-hud-head-up-display-or-change-
keyboard-shortcut) however, it would appear that there's no check for
another key being pressed in the same time window.

Aside from re-mapping, is there anything else I could be doing here?
