When Eclipse is using WebKit as the HTML renderer, javadoc popups (after being focused with F2) are impossible to close with the keyboard: the escape key does nothing. Clicking somewhere in another window still works (i.e. closes the popup).

If I make it use Gecko instead (by setting org.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType to "mozilla" and pointing XULRunnerPath to Firefox 3.6.24 in eclipse.ini), the escape key works as expected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure Eclipse to use WebKit instead of Gecko by means of eclipse.ini.
2. Open a Java project in Eclipse.
3. Point at a class or method that has documentation, e.g. String, and wait for the popup to appear.
4. Press F2.
5. Press escape.

The symptom is different, but the cause is the same as bug 350098.  Marking as a duplicate.

Upgrading to webkit-gtk 1.6.1-r301 fixed this problem
