This apparently only happens with the Google login. Going to other pages that have type-in fields don't result in execution of the command line when Return is pressed.

Well, "fixed" by having floating windows not forward keystrokes to the command line. Besides being kind of weird having an entirely separate window forward keystrokes to another, floating windows don't forward all keystrokes (notably Delete is not forwarded for some reason), and since the Help Viewer is almost always floating, this "fixes" the problem in this ticket. It proved intractable to fix it by modifying the HTML widgets -- just not enough keystroke-handling/forwarding support in them.
