I'll also confirm this issue which I'm pretty sure is caused by
firebug because I've only experienced the problem since installing
firebug a couple weeks ago.

The problem occurs after some arbitrary amount of time and is
evidenced by the tab key no longer working in Firefox (I've confirmed
it continues to work in other applications) and the enter key no
longer working (I'm experiencing the problem now and in order to enter
new lines in this message have to hit shift-enter).  Restarting
Firefox solves the issue for a while.

I'm using firebug 1.05 and Firefox 2.0.0.5 on OSX 10.4
