Build Identifier: 3.650

When embedding the mozilla browser in a SWT application and calling browser.back while the keyboard focus is on the browser, the keyboard focus is lost and cannot be regained again by pressing tab multiple times. Pressing alt-tab twice regains the focus again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a small SWT app and embed the mozilla browser
2. Click to another page in the browser
3. Call browser.back from a background thread (using display.timerExec())
4. Observe that the browser goes back a page, but the keyboard focus is gone and cannot be regained.

Mozilla support is removed in 4.8. Please open new bug if you still face the issue with latest SWT and with default browser engine on your platform.
