Bug 48811 – WebKit2: Repeated cmd-key presses lead to unusable UI state

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit2

[Enrica Casucci]

To reproduce:

1. Visit a page with an empty form field in it, or use the degenerately-simple one attached to this bug
2. Click in the empty form field
3. Command-X -- beeps, as expected
4. Command-X again -- doesn't beep
5. Command-X once or twice more

After a few of these, the insertion point stops blinking, and you can no longer type into the page. 

If you're on a real page (e.g. google.com), mousing over links no longer shows hover feedback on the page (the cursor changes to a link cursor, but the underlines etc. don't appear), and clicking on links updates the URL field but does not load the clicked page.
