Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
1) Turn on the Polish keyboard
2) Go to a chosen page and click a bookmark star
3) Click into any field in a pop-up and press right Alt

Effect:
The pop-up disappears immediately, even before I release the Alt key

Expected effect:
I should be able to get Polish letters by pressing a letter after I pressed Alt but I can't since the pop-up is already gone.
