Bug Description
When a text field or drop menu has the focus on a page, Ctrl-PageUp and
Ctrl-PageDown no longer work to switch tabs. This is very annoying if you want
to switch two tabs in one direction, and the middle tab happens to put it's
focus in a text field or drop menu. This probably also has some a11y
implications, because those keystrokes are the only way to change tabs with the
keyboard.

New profile WFM. Except when the caret was in the text box on the google-firefox
homepage, then it didn't work.
