Description Alexander Pavlov (apavlov) 2011-04-15 06:00:12 PDT
When the Web Inspector is docked and focused, and a Backspace keypress is not handled, it gets routed into the inspected page thereby causing a navigation to the previous history URL.

This patch breaks console in chromium on linux.
Backspace doesn't work in console.

This is not the right approach to fixing the user-visible issue.
