But let me clue you in on how GUIs work in the 21st century.
Nowadays, when an

normally
interpreted as though the user had pressed that button.
Is this Firefox hate or Windows hate?
In Windows at least, "space" means "hilighted button", "return" means
"OK" (or other "approve" selection), and "escape" means "cancel" (or
other "deny" selection). If "cancel" is hilighted and you hit
"return", the standard Windows dialogs will treat this as if you
clicked on the "approve" selection. This is hateful, but if you were
on Windows, that's the correct action (albeit hateful).
If you were on UNIX, then Firefox may be hatefully using Windows
behavior inappropriately. That's a bug.
