Bug Description

On Feisty.

The "sticky keys" accessibility "feature" in gnome is activated by pressing shift 5 times. Unfortunately the dialog informing you that this has happened and offering to disable it pops up beneath other windows, giving you no indication that your shift key is now locked down and that's why clicking in a text input box is selecting text instead of relocating the cursor (along with the many other interface oddities it creates)
