After FF4.0 update, when on websites with Flash (YouTube), or mp3 embed, it is impossible to switch tabs using Cmd+[ or ] or Cmd+(number) without pressing an area outside the embedded portion. When the embedded portion takes up the entire screen, it's impossible to get out of it without using a mouse.

Nope, I wonder what they did in particular that changed that. Severely slows down my non-mouse/shortcut based browsing...

So, no solution to this?
