Hi all,

  Yesterday I pushed a branch called new-input-system.  It contains a
patch which is a substantial rewrite of conkeror's event handling system.
It resolves the keydown/keyup problems we have with some websites (yahoo,
slashdot, ...) as well as laying in place the basis for better mouse
support and more powerful browser objects.

  I don't expect any major problems merging this into master, but because
of the size of the patch, I want to have it available for a short period
of testing by the community before merge.  If you are running conkeror
from our main git repository, you can help test this patch.  Just do the
following:

   git fetch
   git checkout -b new-input-system origin/new-input-system


  When you want to go back to master branch, just do:

   git checkout master


  If you find any problems, you can post to the list, email me, or better
yet, talk to me on our irc channel.

Thanks!

xI have been using it for my daily browsing needs since you pushed it. I
haven't noticed any bugs, but I also didn't notice the problems this
addressed.

  To everyone who helped test this, thank you.  I have merged it into
master.  To switch back to the master branch, do:

   git checkout master


Thanks!
