Self-contained test case is available here: 
  https://github.com/c089/webdriver-bugreport
Just clone it and run gradle build.

Note: added the gradle wrapper scripts, you can run ./gradlew build or gradlew.bat build
on windows even if you don't have gradle installed.

Seems to be Linux-specific:
Firefox 4.0.1 on Linux: Failed
Firefox 12.0 on Windows: Success
Firefox 13.0.1 on Windows: Success

It seems this bug has been (re-)introduced in Selenium 2.42.0.

I just tested Selenium 2.39.0/2.40.0/2.41.0 and they all work fine on Ubuntu 14.04
with Firefox 29.0.

The same problem with Polish character ' Ż ' whcih is always send with uppercase - of
course when nativeEvents=true. 
Problem seems to be only on: 
FF 31.0 Ubuntu 12.04  - ONLY 
(Chrome on Ubuntu/Windows and FF on Windows works fine).

Any news about any changes for fix this problem ? (Currently We have configured big
farm of nodes based on Ubuntu and main browser FF - all TC which Polish character failing
- nativeEvents have to be ON)

Native events are deprecated and deleted from FirefoxDriver.
