Details

(Keywords: regression) 

STR:
  1. Enter file:///home/<username> in the address bar
  2. Click on one of links to subdirectories, like 'Documents'

Expected results:
  The browser attempts to load file:///home/<username>/Documents,
  and that loads successfully.

Actual results:
  The browser attempts to load file:///home/Documents (note the
  absence of the '<username>' segment), which fails.

This is a recent regression.

I saw this the other day as well. Loading file:///home/<username>/ (with the trailing slash) works as expected, I think.
Indeed, the trailing slash makes a difference. Good catch!
I'm quite sure this is a duplicate of bug 1232287. Resolved in Firefox 46.
