Answer 1

Unfortunately the Selenium TypeKeys and Type commands work at the browser level so if you are override somethings it won't work in Selenium.

This bug is still open on the Selenium.

You can try the WebDriver API available in Selenium 2.0 (alpha 1) and the sendKeys command. Available here: http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list
