I can reproduce it 'reasonably' readily if I open lots of tabs (eg 20 or
so) and then repeatedly try to save an image from one of them (right-
click, 'v', escape to cancel). If the save window doesn't come up, it
has selected another option (like block images or copy website);
otherwise a different window might come up (eg the 'set up evolution'
wizard). It might help to load the CPU by running something CPU-
intensive at the same time.

This is much faster than opening a page in a new tab because you can do
this mouse/key combination in rapid succession.

The BBC website is good for this because each page has an image.

In normal usage it happens enough to be very annoying. It will execute a
command like 'block images from this website' from the menu, which you
then have to undo. It might do this two or three times in a row, and
then go back to operating correctly.

I do think though that it's an xorg keyboard problem rather than a
Firefox problem because it has happened for me in Nautilus. I use the
right click far less frequently in Nautilus, however, so I've only seen
it twice.
