Subject: epiphany-browser: Emacs gtk_key_theme set, ctrl-U no longer clears text input
Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2010 14:39:31 -0700
Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.29.92-1
Severity: normal

i recently upgraded from the epiphany-gecko to epiphany-webkit series
of packages.  i have /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_key_theme set to
"Emacs".  prior to the upgrade, this setting allowed me to clear
text input fields in html forms with the Ctrl-U key combination.  after
upgrading this no longer works.

thank you.
