I have a problem with Firefox Beta 52. It doesn't happen in Firefox 4.
Sometimes when I edit text typed in location bar, cursor unexpectedly jumps to the end.
It happens unpredictably, however, I noticed one specific scenario when it happens (when I download a video)

1. Open https://www.ssyoutube.com/watch?v=Sqz5dbs5zmo , then close it. You'll have to copy the url, open new tab, paste it and press Enter to reproduce the bug, but I never did exactly that in my normal browsing.
2. Open https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqz5dbs5zmo in a new tab
3. Type "ss" before text "youtube" in location bar, press Right

Result: cursor jumps to the end of location bar
Expected: cursor moves by 1 letter
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Has STR: --- → yes
Ever confirmed: true

Too late for a fix for 53, fix-optional for 54, minor carryover regression.

I suspect this has been fixed by new autofill
