104197 - URL bar loses focus after window opening

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 76621

(SeaMonkey :: Location Bar, defect)

Description

[Christian Eyrich]

I open a new window, the URL bar gets the focus and I start typing. After about
one second the bar loses the focus and I have to CTRL-L and start typing again.
Why can't URL bar hold the focus?

This is probably a dup of bug 76621, "sidebar elements should not grab focus 
from other parts of window", by way of bug 100454.  Christian, if you open the 
sidebar after the URL bar loses focus, is focus in the sidebar?

@Julien: (BuildID: 2001101003) but it's since 0.9.2

@Jesse: Damn yes, the sidebars search field has the focus. I never use the
sidebar so I didn't think of it.
So it should be a 100454 (and therefore 76621) dupe. Sorry for that, tried to
find such a bug in the db first but obviously didn't use the right words for search.
Thank you
