Thanks for following up Gordon.  It sounds like is not a widespread
problem, but something specific to my configuration, so I guess I
should move the discussion to JIRA (assuming it's not a browser bug).
It looks like Firefox works correctly.  I mainly use Chrome these
days, but I can switch to Firefox for Freebase editing work for the
time being.

The working browser is  Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US;
rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100402 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.9 and the
one that doesn't work is Google Chrome 5.0.396.0 dev (also 64-bit).

I've only got a few Chrome extensions and turning them off doesn't
make a difference.  The behavior is the same on both the sandbox and
production servers.

I'll poke around a little bit more to see if I can figure out whether
or not it's a browser bug and file a bug report in JIRA if warranted.
