In my memory, the phenomenon with FF3 on Linux is same to that of IE7
and Chrome3 on Windows as follow:
1) Click the location area with mouse. The speaker will say "Location
field text area"
2) Input a character, the character doesn't display in the area. The
speaker will restart to say "Location field text area". Every key
stroke will make speaker restart to say that sentence.

Everything works right if I focus location area with CTRL+l

To fix this, I think there should be a mousedown event listener attached to
the outer frame, which will call the same function called when CTRL+l is
pressed.

WA.Interface.focusBrowserElement('location');
