Bug Description
[Impact]
Evolution becomes unresponsive due to GtkHtml not ungrabbing input; this may also affect other applications. When using HTML editing, changing font color or adding emoticons causes the input to be grabbed and never released.
[Test Case]
1) Open Evolution
2) Compose a new message (Click the "New" button at the left of the toolbar)
3) Switch to HTML mode if necessary using the combo box at the bottom left of the message header.
4) Change font color.
[Regression Potential]
Potential regression scenarios include issues with editing messages as HTML; including how the message will be formatted when received or whether other parts of the message composer UI become unresponsive or don't appear to produce results.

When I make a new email in evolution and select the text and change the font colour Evolution freezes. If you try to close the window you get a pop up menu but its impossible to press the buttons.
