Description Bart Trojanowski 2003-04-01 23:54:58 UTC 
I am running '20030209-snapshot'.  But I have seen this in all recent
builds of galeon 1.3.

This is somewhat related to bug 61109.

ctrl-w closes the tab now no matter what, and even if I am writing text in
an textarea (or other text entry field).

I personally do not think this is appropriate since ctrl-w in many apps
deltes the last word.  I get especially frustrated when after writing a few
paragraphs of text in a bugzilla report I press ctrl-w to delte the last
word and find my tab vanishing... 

I am not sure what to suggest, but I think I will keep mozilla around to
write bug reports and use galeon for everything else. :)
