  4. in the JSP, do Ctrl + click over a link
  5. Go back to the JSP editor, and do #4

  Keybinding conflicts for global actions in the Page Designer
  editor occur as a result of incorrectly using the Eclipse
  key binding service.
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix introduced will stop using the Eclipse key binding
  service for those already defined global actions so
  conflicts were reduced significantly.
  
  The fix for this APAR is included in Rational Application
  Developer v8.5.1 Interim Fix 002.
