If you’re a mac user you might know that moment, you hand your keyboard to someone else to type his email-address in some webform… After a view moments “CMD+Q” is pressed in order to create an @. Instead of showing the intended sign the your browser is shut-down. This happens due to the fact that the @-Sign is, other then on a windows or linux pc, created via “ALT+L” on a mac. Also browser shutdown isn’t a big deal, if you’re a tab-messi like me ( there are always a few hundred open tabs, don’t know where they came from ;) ) it takes a few moments till it’s back up again.
Furthermore the already filled fields of the form are lost and have to be filled again.
