Bug Description
To reproduce the issue:
(Similar behaviour is observed in other applications, seemingly depending on whether navigation via keyboard is available on a given screen.)
1) Enable "Locate Pointer" in Settings -> Universal Access -> Pointing & Clicking
2) Open Firefox, go to https:/
3) Enter search text, e.g. "test test test"
4) Click in the search textbox after results are returned
5) Use Ctrl-Left and Ctrl-Right to jump between words in the search textbox
6) Disable "Locate Pointer" to see the problem go away.
