"Lounge" link getting stuck as "Soapbox" in FF3
-
See, I wasn't going mad :-D Steps to reproduce * Open any CP page in FF3 * Hold Ctrl (notice the Lounge link changes to Soapbox as expected) * Whilst holding Ctrl, press T (opens a new tab) * Release Ctrl * return to the original CP tab * Notice it still says "Soapbox", and doesn't return until you press Ctrl again Perhaps you need a timeout if the keyup key isn't detected within a set interval
Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! Buzzwords!

No worries. You only need to complete the official specification of how the Lounge button flips back and forth with the Ctrl key, but when an intervening keystroke is pressed, it acts like a toggle; just need to hit Ctrl again, and all's well. :)
