Summary: Bug with input boxes, javascript and caret position

Comments:
Hi

I'm doing this through here, since I have no idea how to submit a bug
properly into bugzilla.

So here is the thing:
A couple of months ago I made a website, which is now being tested, and
I get a lot of negative reactions about the login form, because the
caret isn't visible when you give the input boxes the focus.
The problem only occurs in Firefox, not in IE, not in Opera. And if I
remembered correctly (I don't have any other earlier versions installed
at the moment), the problem is only there since version 1.5, in 1.0 it
behaved correctly.
You can view the site over here:

I already made an minimal testcase of that, you can find it over here:

So, my question is if this is an already known bug, and if it is still
possible to fix before the release of Firefox 2.0?

Thanks a lot!
