Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0 If enabling the context menu on a flash content, several mouse click are needed to dismiss it. While the context menu is enabled the focus is completely lost and Firefox does not respond to any command.

Steps to reproduce: 1) Open a new Tab 2) Go to a website with flash content (in this case youtube.com) 3) Selected the flash content by clicking on it (in this case click on play) 4) While the content plays, press a keyboard shortcut (in this case Ctrl-w to close the tab) Result: The shortcut is not registered by firefox, the tab remains open Expectation: The shortcut should be registered by firefox, the tab should close A good way of knowing that "selecting the flash content" is at the root of the problem: if you select a part of the page that is not flash content (in this case empty white space at the right or the left of the video) followed by Ctrl-W, the tab closes.
