I have filed issue 414 for this:
 http://bugs.conkeror.org/issue414

And I have found an easier way to reproduce the problem using a page
with a redirect:

 1. g http://xfe.sourceforge.net/
 2. f then wait for 10 seconds for the other page to load

Thank you.  Never seen that one, but that is definitely something I would
want to fix for the 1.0 release.  Seems you have to get the timing just
right; I haven't reproduced it yet.  Go ahead an do the report on
bugs.conkeror.org where it won't get lost.

Thanks

It also happens when using just the keyboard but it is more difficult to
reproduce. Here is an example:

 1. Go to www.google.com.
 2. Enter any search.
 3. f + 21 + Enter + f

Hitting "f" right after "Enter" (before the new page starts rendering)
will do the trick.

Agreed, pretty annoying.  Conkeror's input system does not currently
support the mouse, so don't mix mouse and keyboard.  Expect mouse support
in 2.0.
