Ctrl+W doesn't work correctly #14

It does delete a word, but when you continue typing the word reappears and the new characters are inserted after it.

I'm using Iceweasel 16.0a2 with Xfce on Debian, I think the Ctrl+W actually comes from Gtk and me having Emacs keys enabled.

Does it happen in the Scratchpad as well?

Well possibly, I can't really check since Ctrl+W also closes the Scratchpad
;-)

Can you try with the Style Editor then?

The Style Editor gets closed as well. FWIW Ctrl+W works fine in the
standard JS Console, but I guess that interface is implemented differently.

Linux user here (ArchLinux + awesomewm + FF Nightly). I've set Emacs keybindings in .gtkrc. This happens both in Scratchpad and JSTerm. Very frustrating, as I have KeySnail installed and I'm really hooked on Emacs keybindings in general. Even when I try to do C-Backspace to delete last word, whole line is blanked and after I start typing, the word reappears.

I read somewhere that this whole Scratchpad interface was borrowed from Eclipse. It'd be nice if you could keep it compatible with GTK container Firefox relies on.
