Focus trapped in TinyMCE Editor in Firefox

Description

When editing posts using keyboard only, focus becomes trapped within the content edit area. The issue has been observed with FF25 on Windows, and I believe Macs too.

Understand this might be an issue with FF but flagging it up anyway.

Steps to recreate:

  • Using tab and enter keys only, navigate to edit an individual post.
  • When in edit screen continue tabbing until focus is inside content editor.
  • It is now not possible to tab anywhere.

Both Chrome30 and IE10 on Windows show the correct behaviour - ie that you can tab into and subsequently out of content editor.

I've commented on the related ticket #17261 that this is still happening in trunk in Firefox. It's OK in IE10.

Not sure if this was a browser or editor issue, but works properly in FF 26 in trunk.
