Public bug reported:
In Firefox, Alt+Left and Alt+Right are used to navigate backwards and
forwards in the current tab's page history respectively.
If these key combinations are completed quickly enough, the HUD
erroneously appears immediately afterwards.
"Quickly" is the key here; if the keystroke is completed at a slower
rate (e.g. slower than the time between a user holding down Alt and the
current window's menu bar appearing), the HUD does not appear.
This problem does not seem to occur with all Firefox Alt+ keyboard
shortcuts. For instance, I can hit Alt+1, Alt+2 etc. to switch between
tabs as quickly as I like and the HUD does not appear in these cases.
