Except it's not.  A serious issue is one that is reproducible 100% of  
the time; this one isn't. (I'd also guess that the majority of people  
use the mouse to scroll, not the keyboard, so this would theoretically  
not affect them)

Then this *has* to be a browser bug.  Because the javascript is  
completely different between imp and whups, so it is not something  
related to, for example, javascript events.

At a minimum, you will have to track this down.  We (I) can't fix  
anything if I can't reproduce.

As to where to start: I have no idea.  The only event watching the  
compose screen deals with forwarding messages, which you are not  
doing.  And you are not using HTML compose mode, so that, although a  
likely culprit (and also something that we can do nothing about), is  
not at issue here.
